I thought I read somewhere that ye olde montanan lives on bacon.
Of course, it could just be the Montana air. Most beautiful state in the Union.

"Breuning recalled "the dark ages," when his family moved to South Dakota in 1901 and lived for 11 years without electricity, water or plumbing." Sounds like the movie "Legends of the Fall." God bless this old timer, but I suggest we are living in a darker age now.

My aunt lived to 96, despite whiskey and cigarettes. Of course, she did give up the ciggies at 70. And she really did say, “If I had known I would live so long, I would have taken better care of myself”. Rest in peace, Aunt Willibelle, I’ll see you shortly.

Read several articles about this guy and none were flattering. It’s normal for the media to have an extreme lack of respect.

His wife, Agnes, a railroad telegraph operator from Butte, died in 1957. The couple had no children. I think I found his secret.

Nifty story. Wifey was born three miles from Melrose, MN which is in Stearns County. Several years ago the Wall Street Journal did a story on the longevity of oldsters in that county; the lifespan was much, much longer than anywhere else in the U.S.
That's all changed now, of course.....Melrose is crawling with hispanics and Somalians who work the turkey and dairy plants. We were there a couple of months ago and were shocked that this little whitebread burg is changed forever.
