Book Description
The Story of Bill shares the life of a Minnesota farm boy. Though Bill left the farm while in high school to find work in the big city of Minneapolis, the farm kept calling him back. Bill's careers or hobbies included raising hogs and dairy cattle, dry cleaning, auto mechanics, flying, baking, 4H and livestock showmanship (with his children), driving a taxi cab, electrical wiring, plumbing, carpentry, real estate, picking and packing parts for John Deere, being a dispatcher for the electrical company, and repairing data processing machines (including the IBM mainframes that were predecessors to the modern personal computer). This book, like our country, spans the transition from the farm to the city, starting at the Great Depression. The Story of Bill is our story with the familiar patterns of life and love, loss and heartache, achievements and regrets. It is, in short, life lived.

Book Description
Life is full of choices, decisions, memories, photographs, and—most importantly—love. When life is moving at full title, there's not always time to reflect on those everyday occurrences. Retirement allows us the time and presence of mind to sit down and take stock. That's just what the writers in Memories & Musings did. Written by "vintage" Minnesotans from The Guided Autobiography and poetry classes at Whitney Senior Center, their stories and poems are a collection of life's journey and the many paths taken. Inside, you'll find writing submissions that explore: Paths into creative writing Trails and tracks in nature Pathways of family members Passages through life's journey This anthology will make you think, laugh, and cry at the peculiar human condition we all find ourselves living. So, pour a mug of tea or coffee—maybe settle in with a glass of wine—and savor the diverse flavors of each writer's journey.
