My impossible dream

From learning to cook on a cookstove (a stove with black lids that burned coal and mischt), snaring gophers in the prairie pasture on a Sunday afternoon, and bucking the northwest wind in North Dakota while riding a two-wheeled cart hitched to a non-stop pony in January of 1938 - To flying in an Eastern Airlines jet that served gourmet meals and endless champagne in 1968, traveling in a 747 jet airliner, and enjoying ocean and river cruises in my life as a world traveler. My life story.
