“Some good old Memories remembered again Today”

Sometimes remembering the good ole days… includes an old photo of you and your classmates.

The next thought is… wondering where, each and all of your friends and classmates for several years at St. Vincent’s’ are today?

My thought is… everyone starts something different and  that leads them to new cities and places in the world, and before everyone has found a new niche in this world to call HOME … just keeping track and staying in communication … with our old friends… back then… new and better ways of keeping in touch were needed and also  brought up to date.

Communications  back in the day… if you, were not there back then… good,  as  we did not have the ways of really keeping in touch with each other… as we now… do have!

“Elma and Eleanor” … would make the rest of our class mates… and were not around at the time we  were taking a few photos.

and then… we had a bike… back in the old times.

“Well…it looks like I will be just standing here and posing… by the time Mary Ellen gives me the “OKAY” to ride.

I’ll have to turn in for the night, here!”  

“You know when you have an older, sister,  you feel like… they must be some kind of a teacher…  did you ever listen to some older… “sister’s”  –

It seems  as if…  they were just born with a whole bunch of  “HOW TO   DO’s …  this and that…  and  really…  what do they know more than the next guy???”  

“I know, that some day I will get to ride this… here,  old bike!”

“If I can keep telling myself “… “someday it will be safe to ride this old bike … but, WHEN???”

It was nice,  when my DAD had his old “Jalopy” …  without it I guess,  that I never would have seen this bike?  

There were also the times when my Dad brought other stuff… out to this HOME …  and we would get to share it with all the other kids.

The one time I remember in the “SUMMER”  …  and boy o-boy was it ever FUN …  we all had “WATERMELON” … all the KIDS …  kept coming back for more and more slices… that was the best time for everybody…

It is really good to have some very good memories of the time when we all were younger and everything and every day was a new learning lesson… always growing… for the rest of of our LIVES!
