He sounds like he was a wonderful example of how folks should be.<br />Our folks knew what the depression was as kids. I remember Dad talking about the Conservation Corps, and the guys he knew that worked with them for months on end. It was a good thing that was done. (He was one of the lucky ones that got into the paper mill early on.) We do need the same thing again, to fix what has worn with time, but there just aren't many out there that would work for minimum pay anymore, let alone a meal and a shower. It's a sad country we now live in. When will the unworthy, but able, learn that it's not the dollars but the satisfaction and heart that counts. I'm just so glad my kids all have satisfaction and appreciation in their jobs. They are all healthy and have roofs over their heads. That's more than too many.<br />BlessingsMyFriendsDarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16642092433299872708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-62886501925555738832012-11-25T15:25:34.602-05:002012-11-25T15:25:34.602-05:00We have many remnants of the CCC up here, logging ...We have many remnants of the CCC up here, logging camps long deserted, bunk houses in reforestation areas back in the woods, stone walls built by hand along river banks, and there are lots of houses, all identical built by the WPA along many streets in the city.<br />We are getting SNOW and Cold, don't know yet if we can get south for the winter.<br />Hope you 2 are doing OK,<br />Love from the Frozen North Country !!!<br />Gary an Anna MaeWoodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10133152472401045582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-70861547241510300532012-11-25T10:12:14.066-05:002012-11-25T10:12:14.066-05:00My parents grew up in the great depression and I h...My parents grew up in the great depression and I heard many tales over the years of how hard the struggle was for their families to live during those times. World War II had started by the time I was born and things changed very fast for everyone. Jobs were suddenly available that hadn't been there before. Those that weren't fighting seemed to be working. My mom's family relocated for a while to work where the factories were. One thing about it is that things never stay the same and are always changing. We just have to adjust to them and do the best we can. We had our first snow fall yesterday. No accumulation, but brrrchill it surely did get cold.<br />Hope you all are enjoying some warm sunshine there!I'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-19392767526182129512012-11-25T10:01:13.561-05:002012-11-25T10:01:13.561-05:00I agree with you, Jack.

It would be nice to have such a program to get people out there working who are able to work and to get out there to get some of the work that needs to be done on streets, parks, etc. But if it will happen, not sure about that.<br /><br />My mom was born in 1921 so she remembered the depression well. She came from a family of 10 siblings, but she was the youngest, so several brothers/sisters would have been out of the house by the time the depression "hit". Her family weathered it as well as could be expected. They didn't have much, but always had what they needed. I do remember her saying her mother would give something to eat to anyone who came and knocked at the door. Perhaps that's why they always had what they needed because she was willing to share it with others. I'm sure she wasn't the only one that did such a thing too.<br /><br />foggy morning here in sunny California; going to head out to church soon :)<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.com
