Reflections from Baby Boomers

The Baby Boomer Generation has lived through some pretty incredible history in our lifetime. We listened as man orbited the earth for the first time, we saw a President assassinated, we marched for civil rights, and protested the Viet Nam war.

We have witnessed advancements in technology from the space program, telephones, televisions, and computers.

As children we heard the beginnings of Rock n Roll music in the 1950s and made the bands of the 1960s reach stardom. In the 1970s we danced our hearts out to the disco beat.

We drove the muscle cars and chopped motorcycles.

We were flower children, hippies, freaks, and geeks. We were soldiers, draft dodgers, and conscientious objectors. We were Woodstock!

And now we are at a time in our lives where we should be Storytellers. We should pass on to the next generations the history of our lives.

Be sure to fill the ice trays, we've got company coming.

You've torn the knees out of that pair of pants so many times that there is nothing left to put a patch on.

Quit slamming that screen door when you go out!

Don't forget to wind the clock before you go to bed!

Don't go outside with your school clothes on!
