AS LUCK WOULD HAVE IT
When I think back about the history that happened while I was growing up to graduate in the class of ’68 in small-town America, I was more thinking about relationships, dating, muscle cars, movies, TV shows, drive-ins and family events. I heard of some events while they happened but didn’t realize the full extent of how our country and the world changed with the history that took place at the same time. I took a look back and now I want to share with you every day, country and world events that shaped our lives.
