“My parents had us very young. We lived in a modest house. We built forts, we hiked, we went camping and they wanted us to be independent. It's how children grew up in the 1940s and 50s: outside all the time, playing in the dirt, riding your bike around.”
“I can't complain about my life. I have a really nice life. I have a great family and I live in a gorgeous part of the country.”
