I was not quite 14. Birthday is in April. Mornings would find me delivering my Detroit Free press route. IIRC it was a pretty cold winter and I was learning how to ice fish. Listening to Steppenwolf, Zepplin and the Doors. I was reading Hot Rod magazine and books from the library.

I was 10 years old, but I remember our local library having Hot Rod Magazine available, pretty cool.

Graduated from college in December '71, so was out looking for a job in a tough economy. Was probably rolling pennies to buy a couple of tacos to celebrate getting through engineering school.

I was 2. Probably picking, eating, scratching, and playing with our dog. Nothing exciting but in a lot of ways being a more productive member of society than a lot of other folks. LOL!

I was nine years old and in the 3rd grade, having moved to our family farm outside a small town in the country about nine months earlier. It was the winter of 71-72 that, while doing my farm chores, I discovered how muddy farming could be on days when the ground wasn’t frozen.
