Where we're you when Nixon resigned?

[Houmes]

40 years ago I walked into my mothers house in Detroit to find President Nixon on TV announcing his resignation. I was home on leave from the service. Sidebar: I had just purchased the four volume set: Battles and Leaders of the Civil War ( which I still own today). Where we're you all? What were you doing? Studying the Civil War then?

I was eating a buffalo steak dinner, grilled over a campfire up in the New Mexico mountains. I was in college and spent summers there as a backpacking guide. We only had a little radio with lousy reception to listen to his speech. The steak was tasty.
