RANDOM THOUGHTS - March 26, 2024

 RANDOM THOUGHTS - March 26, 2024


I’ve often mulled over this proverb: “Society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they know they shall never sit.”  …  Like the Montana author Ivan Doig says, “There are so damn many ways to be a fool a man can’t expect to avoid them all.”  …  I drank from the Fountain of Youth in Florida and discovered it doesn’t work  …  An eclipse of the sun coming soon. I remember one when I was mowing in the hayfield where it got quite dark for a minute or two  …  Who says it can’t be winter again  …  We have this drawing by Don Greytak on our wall. It brings back so many memories, for both Mary and me.
