did you go back or was that when you struck out on your own?
No..I had left when I was 14..got a job in Mountain home Idaho at a gas station, bought a 47 chevy for 65 bucks. Found my parents at 15 when I left again at the point of a pistol..bummed around..worked here and there, bucked bales in Colorado..went to work in a zink/silver mine drilling and blasting at 16. I must have hitch hiked accross the country several times..ended up in California and enlisted in 67. Amazing how you could get around back then with not much money!
