Yes, 'tis true. I've crossed over into the land of "crotchety-dom". It's a land where Haggard and Jones still roam free, Waylon and Willie are outlaws and Johnny still walks the line.
The farmhouse I grew up in was small and old. It's gone now, gone for years I guess. They tore it down pretty much as soon as Mom and Dad moved out and 'moved into town' (a town called Leota, about 300 people or so I think).
But the living room had a lot of things in it...
I lost my Dad almost 10 years ago. Now someone I love lost their Dad. It brings back memories that are warm and a sadness that lingers, but a smile as well.
