We did not have much money when I was growing up and my father took the bus everyday to work, never took a sick day but when sick would come straight home and go to bed to get rest.

It's interesting to get a glimpse from an earlier time when life seemed a bit less hurried, when catching the bus and your dad cycling to work was the norm because not everyone had a car. It made me look back at my own childhood. col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-91713948687425239942017-05-05T04:14:15.256-07:002017-05-05T04:14:15.256-07:00Sounds like a solid story, Col - a sort of cross b...Sounds like a solid story, Col - a sort of cross between memoir and biography.
