Grew up in that part of the world. In Austin in the 1920s and 30s? No, Georgetown in the 60s. We were on the edge of cedar country but were well aware cedar was getting chopped not far away. Those were the only cedar choppers I was personally aware of.
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR

Cedar choppers... Dang, yall are a tough crowd. Grew up in that part of the world.
Is there no way theres not a single one of them thats just a decent blue collar worker???? Free, you mighta started off as a blue collar guy, but you worked quickly to the white collar crowd…. Didnt say I personally was a blue collar worker. Just grew up a half hour from lots of cedar chopping. The guys that did that work had a certain stereotype. As far as my naive self could tell they were considered under educated and poorly raised and not the pillars of the community. Many would say that about ditch diggers or any other menial labor type jobs. I would never throw a blanket over an entire segment of people. The earlier referenced choppers from the 20s I have no clue about.

Not too far back there was a white collar father/husband arrested in Rockwall because he was a meth dealer. I been trying to look it up. People can surprise you, for sure.
