SAAVIK”s view from space
Pay attention to the tube size
It’s just a tad smaller than the hole I put in the basement wall, wasn’t long after I learnt early on how lay block and work concrete. I don’t know if you know, but there’s a lot of chemistry to be found under the kitchen sink after one has been told “no more chemistry sets”.
A short story that fits what I’ll show you soon enough. I got a call, she couldn’t find her social security card, looked much like this metal, issued in the late 30’s and only to adults.
went over there, looked myself, couldn’t find, I’ll call it in for ya, ” no you will not, you’ll drive me to the office, ma, that’s good ways down the road, “Yea well, it’s a good for ride, let’s go”. At the office, the guy behind the desk, asks her heritage, she blurts out American in her matter fact tone, ma, you are a good measure of Cherokee, the guy is looking at her, yeah well I’m American so put that down. ( she had talked about a time when it was best to hide your native blood so I fully understand why she said American. Some stuff I shouldn’t do, yeah well ok so
Being a good guy, I only redact with 20# bond paper. do notice the date and Heritage.
Taking care funeral things, I was asked her ancestry, felt a slight smile break, related the story, so the man put it down :).
At 80 some plus a few years, she couldn’t hunt no more, don’t mean she couldn’t work a fish pole, see that look on her face, it’s the look of ” shoulda killed one” lil sis took the picture of her looking at me. Ma, I’m gonna make you famous ” I don’t wanna famous” heard that a time or to as well.
We good
yea, we’re good
