Older People Can be Pretty Cool

OMGoodness, amazing. I love this guy. Tears in my eyes. He's still here because he still has purpose and used it on me for one. I'm more motivated today and want to make the most of MY purpose. Thank you for posting this meanderer.

T.J. Oden's family has been farming and ranching on the same plot of land in West Texas for more than 100 years. "It was important to my father that our land stay in the family for as long as possible. He handed it down to me and I'll hand it down to my son," Oden said.

"Charlie Craighead, film producer, held a benefit concert on August 6, 1997 at Jackson Lake Lodge, Jackson Lake, WY, to raise funds for a film he was doing about Mardy Murie, sometimes called the "grandmother of the conservation movement," because of her writings and work in saving our natural resources".

"John Denver came to play and sing a ballad he had written about Mardy and her husband, Olaus, "A Song for All Lovers," but Mardy wasn't there because it was her potluck bridge night".

"Mardy was the recipient of the Medal of Freedom, this country's highest honor for civilians and many other awards from the Sierra Club and other environmental groups".


 
My first car – Bryan Ferry

"The first car I had was a lovely Vauxhall Velox – big and chunky. But I quickly exchanged it for a beautiful American car called a Studebaker and this I always considered my first real driving experience. As American cars go from that period it was very understated and beautifully streamlined".

"Some are born stylish, but let’s be honest: not many. You usually have to spend a few years learning the ropes. The saturnine singer Bryan Ferry, 71, served his apprenticeship in his teens, when he worked in a tailor’s in Newcastle. His snappy dress sense subsequently survived the sartorial dark ages of the 1970s and 1980s, since when, like a single-malt, he has just got smoother. When Ferry wears a suit, it stays worn".
