Throughout history we have always looked at the deeds of great men. We know all about the exploits of Alexander the Great , we have all heard of the teachings of Aristotle or the travels of Columbus. However history almost never records the great achievements of people like Doug.
In our fast paced world we almost hardly seem to have time to spend together. On this occasion there was a chance to celebrate Doug’s 80th birthday. 80 years and still running to a shed to grab a pitchfork for a light hearted shot. That is quite a feat.
This was a unique chance for me to record a little bit of the history of Doug’s family and friends. I was truly inspired to see the level of youth, fun, and camaraderie on this day. Perhaps when we are all but dust some future archeologist will find this story and be able to say that we loved, respected and had a blast no matter what the age.
