RE: When I'm Sixty-Four - SAM Saturday Challenge
howdy from Texas sir bluemoon! that lightning strike photo is magnificent! I agree, turning 64 is good and bad. Wisdom yes, physical wearing down bad! lol. What did you do before you retired?
Hi, Texas for me has always been a battlefield because of western films. I worked in several places but mostly in construction and in a bank.
howdy sir bluemoon! well there was always some fighting going on in Texas until about 150 years ago because there were so many Indian tribes that were war like and we had to fight the Mexicans to gain our independence from them so yes there was alot of war and violence in the past until the white men got it all taken over and settled.
Construction and a bank! Those are two very different professions, how interesting!
Yes, you have an interesting history. Petrol also!
About my professions. I have lived in two forms of government in Romania. Communism, then we worked in construction and then it was a revolution, fell communism was replaced with capitalism. In capitalism, banks became very interesting and paid better.
howdy again sir bluemoon! wow that is very interesting! The banks didn't require hard physical work either. very good choice.
For the money, first choice...and constructions were down for a while...
