This blog is so incredible. When I first found the old site it covered juts about all the memories that I could think of from the old neighborhood. More and more people came on to share memories and even reunite with lost friends and sometimes it has even reunited family. I say this blog is incredible but, it's the people here that make it this way. I don't come on often enough to keep up with all the reading...man you guys can taWk...but I'm here enough to see the love you guys share not just for the old neighborhood but, for each other. I might not catch up with ALL that goes on here but, one thing is obvious..."u's guys"(borrowing from Festina...thank you) have become a close family.

SUZIE,HOW IS YOUR MOM DOING,?? AND YOUR DAD ALSO. I HOPE EVERY DAY IS BETTER FOR THEM. AND YOU AND YOUR SISTER TOO.
