Fifty Six Years Ago
Fifty Six Years Ago, my best friend and neighbor, Tammy Mitchell, and I laid in the floor of her living room and watched this happen. Only because her Mother made us.
Neither of us thought it was of any significance. Teenagers! Do they every think anything going on outside their orbit is important? When the anniversary of Neil Armstrong’s walk popped up on Facebook, 8 years ago, I sent it to Tammy to see if she remembered. Never thinking she would be gone for almost 3 years now.
Later my Dad worked in Wapakoneta, Ohio. Neil Armstrong’s hometown. Gene is the trivia player you want on your team. Me, maybe not. I always say his brain is full of useless information. LOL However, anytime Neil Armstrong is mentioned I always say I can answer the question of his hometown, if it is ever on Jeopardy.
Left the Holler but Not Too Far
