Mickey Schall Jackson Hole Lineman

By Michael Schall Johnson

I didn't get left at a bus station or dropped over a fence. But much of my childhood was a fearful time for me. Early in life, each family I lived with had varying rules (or lack of rules) on how they were enforced. Sometimes, I was pretty terrified. I have no fame nor any celebrities that I mingled with to cash in on, just accounts and stories. After my wobbly, fatherless, start in life, the journey I traveled was from the middle of the Second World War, onward to the 21st Century. I slept in ditches and was homeless when I left my mom and step-dad, as a pretty frightened teen. I was afraid of almost everything and everybody. I hoboed through the Mojave Desert when I was 18, just out of High School. I gradually learned to forgive my emotionally immature, selfish mother and my lingering feelings of anger, loneliness and abandonment. I foolishly took on adult levels of responsibility in an effort to buy the impossible from my mom. I took pleasure working my way up to the snowcapped mountains of Montana, Wyoming and Nevada. Along the way I had a couple of very good, responsible kids. I am an ordinary guy, that has had some extraordinary adventures. Amazingly, my life was transformed, when I was 49 years old, as I met my wonderful wife and we are living blissfully in our "golden years". -------Michael
