“I’m 77.

Traveled 2,000,000 road miles over 40 year span. ZERO accidents.”

So did they give you any just reason for making you wait until you were 37 before they would let you have your license?

The 40 years was my business career, until I moved back to spend 25+ years taking care of sick and or elderly family. (also keep the farms operating)

I don't travel as much.

Got my drivers license as a freshman in high school. It was in 1962. I've had a driver's license since then.

Prior to that I was driving a tractor when I was 10, my brother & I had a 1947 Willies Jeep that we drove around the farm. And hauled my grandfather.

My brother and I were hunting with the men when we were 10 and 12. We were very good at hunting quail and dove. We had great bird dogs, over the years we had 4.

Dad bought my bother and I our first gun. It was a single shot, full choke, 20 gauge shotgun. It was a Remington pattern by their subsidiary in Brazil. I still have mine. Great little gun.
