RE: throw away society

Actually, one of my great uncles looked like a "throwback," God love him.
And to make things worse, he was a bit on the slow side too.  (He used to
scare the daylights out of me as a toddler!)  Maybe that's where grandma got
it!?!  My great uncle was a sweet natured person and very honest.  The older
I got the more guilty I felt about letting his looks scare me so.

Blessings,
Bonnie  (SW Oh -zone 5)
