Yesterday, when I was talking to the woman taking Kit for Border Terrier Rescue, she mentioned what BT prices were like now. I remembered paying $170 for Ginger, my first Border Terrier, and thought that would be close to what BT prices are now. Probably for a pet quality pup, though, $1143.90 to $1178.47 in 2009 dollars. 1963 or 1964 was when I got her.

I never thought of my parents as being particularly rich, but for then and there, I can see why the college professors found the mill management irritating. Great time to be an intelligent white man, I suppose. And the WPA and GI Bill made it possible for him to go to college and graduate school.
