The Old Days

The way it used to be

Lived near Joshua Tree for many years- and Yosemite, and the giant sequoias, Death Valley. You get the idea. Then it happened. My father died, and we moved 'Back East.'
When I grew up- lousy in school, by the way- I bummed around. Until I discovered that I liked programming. I had an instinct for some of the intricacies. My entire adult life was there.
The Federal Aviation Agency! Boy, was I good at this programming. I will talk about all that later.
