Tidbits

Recently I was in Abilene with two granddaughters (Laura and Leigha) on some sort of business and when it involved that time had slipped away, we just wanted to make one more stop— looked at the house where their late grandmother Gay Nell and I originally set up housekeeping. A G.I. eligible 2 bedroom on N. LaSalle where their late grandmother and I originally set up housekeeping on the north side where I had lived as an employee of the Reporter News— I had moved up from general reporter to Military editor because I had been in the Army and supposedly knew something about writing about Dyess AFB which was relatively new at that time. 08/24/2023 12:00 AM
