prune picker

This is the blog of a prune picker. (Native born Californian) Retired oilfield. I am an old man. I blog a lot about my body and getting old. As I approach death life gets more interesting. More interesting is not good. I still drive. I attend sports, music, and civic events. I am writing my memoirs. I attend swim class three times a week. Some of my blogs might be interesting. A lot of my blogs are silly and trivial. None are very long.

Flag Day in Ruston

I was at the VFW Post at 4:45 am to help put out flags in Ruston. There were already a group of volunteers from the National Guard at work on the job. They looked so young and able that I retired from the field.

Several hundred flags are placed downtown and the main entrances to Ruston. A lot of physical labor is required to place cement block flag holders and insert the flags. They will go out this evening, pick up the flags, and put them away.
