at Bill and Sarah's on Halloween 1982. We still lived in Colorado Springs until May or June of '83. What a sweet baby. You were supposed to be the ghost of Babe Ruth (your dad's corny idea :rofl: )

37. Yeah
We didn't have a real backyard when I was a kid. Just a concrete courtyard between buildings. It was actually a weird setup two-family house with attached embroidery factory and another two-family house with another attached embroidery factory behind it. Next door was a magazine publisher (building behind the fence) and on the other side was a tenement.

Now my mother...well, let's just say that NUMEROUS people have told me to write a book about her.

Haven't talked to her in awhile, due to her insanity...came home today to a giant bag of dog food on my front porch with a note on it saying to call her. Err...
