Ochi: The Italian Invasion of Greece, 1940

[Grognard Gunny]

Ain't it funny (incidentally) how one's hobbies, books, interests, etc. shrink as one gets older? I was reminiscing about how my life has "shrunk" over the last twenty years. Here's one for the books, I haven't even read for the last couple of years and I read incessantly since I was seven or eight... particularly History. I don't know why that is. At any rate, I've given to libraries, second hand book stores, literally a ton of books over the last 10-15 years.... my "extensive" library now consists of but one bookcase.

Maybe it's just a manifestation of "wrapping things up" before one closes the books on one's existence. Ah well, it WAS fun!
