Maryann - You said your father was from 29th st....did you live there also, I lived on 27th st. right across the street from St. Roccos....

Hi Judy, Hope you and your mom are doing well.
My mom grew up on 28th and my dad on 29th.
Do you know Josephine Lombardi? She married my uncle Frankie Minafo.
Have a great weekend!

We loved playing "skelies" with the bottle tops filled with melted crayons.

Another game --------- one girl gets picked to go in the middle of the circle and we're singing "with flowers in her hair" I can't remember the whole song and then she does a dance "shake it the right, shake it to the left" ???? LOL

Hi Patsy, how's it going?

oh my God! dats right maryann!!
i forgot dat one.
i used to play it all the time with my friends!
how's it go again?
we used to put our hands on our hips, then shake it, right?

does anyone remember the words to dis?

didn't we used to use our own names when we sang it?
-----------------------

Hi Festina, there were so many games back then!!! I loved jumping rope and roller skating too, I also had the game "Miss Popularity" that I played all the time with my friends. My brother (2 yrs. older) & a bunch of kids used to ride bikes on the hot summer nights and I wanted more than anything in the world to learn how to ride a bike, I was determined, it took me a long time but I taught myself and then I was able to ride with them, it was great to fit in with the big kids.

Will bring the pictures with me. My sister has had bad news following removal of her Ovaries etc:. Your pictiures and the ones I took in Brooklyn on our trip may help get her mind off things not so pleasant.
Meanwhile my wife Carol & I have had good news following some of our recent tests. My two Cancers, Prostate & Bladder, seem to be under control & Carol's Colorectal Cancer is no where to be found! Carol gets severe digestive attacks from her operation & treatments and she gets Migraines but the big "C" seems to have left her. Congrats to Franny on her good news.

To add to the games we played: Buck Buck how many horns are up(Johnny on a pony)
Ringo Leavio, Kick the can, Did any of you cook "Mickeys" at the curb. Real sanitary considering what the horses (and some of the kids) did in the street. OLD GOAT

------------------------

It's great to hear your good news, best wishes and good health to both of you. Thanks for posting the names of the games, so many fun times back then!!!!
Have a nice weekend!
