Lefty's Retirement and Hobbies

My husband comes from a family of eight children
and he was the first and only boy.
His mom is now 89 and recovering from a hip replacement.
The sisters all take turns caring for her
and Lefty fills in when needed.
Below is a picture of his family taken at Lefty's 60th
Surprise Birthday Party.

After over 52 years on the highway driving a tractor trailer,
my husband finally made his decision to retire, very reluctantly.
Our wonderful children gave him a most wonderful memory by having not one,
but two retirement parties for him. The first was for our friends and family,
and the second for his co-workers over the many years, and people
he had delivered to. Both were a great success, and they really surprised him.

He usually drove about 100,000 a year mostly on the East Coast.

What it's like being a truck driver in Norway Roknes Truckstop

Since he has retired he has kept busy
working around the house, and yard

and driving his 1963 Ford Econoline pickup around.

He now even has a Honda Scooter to run around with.
Has ditched it once already,
but keeps on motoring.
I have a 76 year old kid on my hands.
Oh what fun!!!!

He looks forward to the Purple Martins arriving each Spring
and moving into his six martin bird houses.
Some of his hobbies include Nascar.
He is a Nascar fan and thinks Jeff Gordon is the greatest.
In fact, he is so busy he has trouble finding time to finish his chores.

We will be planning to take a few short trips here and there
and quite possibly may meet some more of my ICQ chat buddies.
I have met several already and looking forward to meeting many more.

Lefty is always willing to help out a friend in need,
and with no hesitation. He can drive anywhere
and is always giving directions to our friends when they ask.
I am so fortunate to have such a wonderful husband,
and friend and I love having him home all the time now.

We hope you enjoyed this little section and
please come and see us again.
Have a "Wonder-filled" Day and God Bless !

Well, Lefty has now started gardening,
and by golly he is doing quite well.

He is becoming quite a gardener.
Does a fantastic job growing tomatoes.
