This week our three children all start school on differing days. Our daughter will be going back to college on Friday. I'm deeply greatful it is only 60 miles away and that she has made a few good friends that bring her home often. She was one of only 8 kids to earn an AA degree while still in high school through the head start program at the local community college. Little did we know that while the cost was minimal the credits would follow her to the University but NOT the GPA.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
