Baby chicks weredelivered by mail, and children were expected to milkcows and feed pigs every morning.This seems like a long time ago and a long way away,but it was the beginning of my life—a life filled withchanges and challenges, adventure and brotherhood.My life took me from the simple times of Nebraska to alarger world. But the lessons I learned there werenever forgotten and made me into the man I am today.Come share with me these tales from my memory andremember what real life was like.
