MY BABY - "THERE GOES MY BABY WITH SOMEONE NEW!
SHE SURE LOOKS HAPPY! I SURE AM BLUE"

MILES FROM NOWHERE

RAPIDS & PARKWAY - NIAGARA FALLS 5/1961

SKIPPY THE CAT '59 - YEAH! WE HAD A CAT, BELIEVE IT OR NOT! USED TO DROP HER OFF THE BACK PORCH TO SEE IF SHE LANDED ON HER FEET.
SHE HAD A BIG CHUNK TAKEN OUT OF HER NECK BY THE GERMAN POLICE DOG ACROSS THE STREET. DOG WAS BLIND IN ONE EYE AND REALLY
SNAPPY WHEN APPROACH ON THE BLIND SIDE. I DON'T THINK THAT THE GERMAN POLICE DOG WAS EVEN A BREED; I.E. THEY WERE HYBRID RESULTS OF ATTEMPTS TO BREED. ANY WAY SKIPPY WAS ADOPTED AND LIVED A LONG TIME.

BOBBY - 11 MONTHS - 8/55 FIRST WHEELS - "GET YOUR MOTORS RUNNING!"

THAT'S MOM WITH AUNT RUTH, RUTH MEADE AT TAUGHANNOCK FALLS, NY 5/61. RUTH WAS MY FATHER'S YOUNGER SISTER. I AM TELLING YOU THIS BECAUSE THE GLADIOLAS ARE DOING SO WELL ON RUTH'S SIDE OF MY PARENTS TOMBSTONE, AND YOU MIGHT WONDER WHO SHE WAS. SHE WAS A FUSS BUDGET, A FUDDY DUDDY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT MADE HER THAT WAY. MAYBE SOME CATHOLIC SCHOOLBOY GOT FRESH WITH HER. MAYBE IT WAS HER MOTHER, MY GRANDMOTHER, AGNES MEADE. YOU SHOULD SEE THE GLADIOLAS ON GRANDMA'S GRAVE. FOUR FEET TALL. I PROP THEM UP BY STOMPING WADS OF WET GRASS UP AGAINST THEM. "I AM A FLORICULTURE SPECIALIST, AIN'T I?"
