Prior to 1966 or so, I lived in the best place in the world
Don't forget this country started with 13 colonies, & we were lucky to be born here in the best country in the world. -Carol
Prior to 1966 or so, I lived in the best place in the world, heart of the USA, with the best schools and friends and family and everything Leave It to Beaver swell, except in glorious Technicolor.
They gutted what made the town great, death and divorce wrecked the family, schools changed, cultural foundations were lost. All in half a decade.
Could not give my kids what I received. Did our best to transmit the Spirit of it, though. A glorious 4th of July parade can still evoke it, but, yes, we''ll be a while rebuilding. God willing.
