Too bad more of the younger generation never followed their parent's path into farming, I wish I could have had that opportunity.

Uncle Jim wound up selling the farm and moving away from Oklahoma to Mississippi in '79. My cousin wound up back in Oklahoma, he lives just up the road from me. He turned out to be a hell of a guitar player, plays in a local band around Tulsa. He's the other left winger in the family, strong outspoken progressive. I don't know if he's a DUer or not, haven't asked him, I'll have to ask next time I see him
