OD: Yup...I remember Bloomer State Park real well...I remember a grasser there when we were seniors...a couple of hundred kids and lots of beer...state police pulled in with three or four cars...everybody took off running in every direction...cops fired a couple of shots...I assume in the air...I burrowed the last couple of hundred yards...fortunately I had parked the car outside of the park...Dale and I got back to it along with a couple of sweet things who needed a ride back to the eastside...it turned out to be a great night after all. |

OD and GB: The class of 61 always held all of their functions at Metro Beach or Ballduck on the Marquette school side. GB is actually Howie T the first male cheerleader at DHS and he still wears those elevator shoes. I looked at the '56 Navigator that my brother had at his house in Maryland....GB was barely visible ... and my brother remembers Renee M living mid block on Mapleridge between brock and salter.....SHe had a brother names harry .... |

OD: Its best to keep in mind that ES tends to fantasize a great deal...the elder E and I did out best to provide good role models...but...obviously some things don't turn out as planned. |

ES: Harry Morris sounds almost as made-up as Renee Morris. Are you sure it wasn't hairy Morris (as in Morris the cat)? Come to think of it, I may remember a hairy girl named Renee.

OD: Now that you mention it...I do remember a Renee who lived on Mapleridge...she had one hell of a mustache...maybe that's why she's the object of ES's fantasies. |

ES: Not that I was aware of...my thing with her was in the spring and summer of '58...Her mother was a single parent who worked...that made their house available. I think SR married a guy who was a football player but I don't remember his name...she was in the class after me. I have an interesting story about Larry V.A...but its not suitable for this venue...his father was DPD...he used to come around to the schools with a Doberman called Safety Girl to put on programs. |

GB: actually they both are doing well...thanks for asking.... It is a great time of the year to be in Maryland....BUT from late May until mid Sept is not my type of climate......and sailing is shitty in the summertime....no wind!••••••
The sailing part is very cool......hanging out with Bro and my college roommate at MSU on these adventures is good if not great therapy... |

ES: That's true...you can't beat Spring time in the South...or mid-South. True, nothing worse than the summer doldrums on the Cheaspeake...the flies move in. Its always good to connect with those old and special relationships...was with one of mine in Chicago in March...all has turned out well with his wife's surgery. |

GB: There are some enormous like really huge homes along the banks of the eastern shore of Maryland... they all can't be in the mafia .... They make Grosse Pointe homes on windmill Point Dr. look like gatehouses.... and they appear to be of the summer home variety.... HUGE!•••••• and a lot of them...... BUT shitty weather is the norm for most of the year.... HOT -Humid -INsects - more insects and HOT weather - and Humid weather and insects.... |

ES: Those Eastern shore homes belong to the DuPonts, etc...they are really SOMETHING! At one time in life I was related to one of the owners through a couple of cousins by marriage, etc., etc., etc...I agree...the Chesapeake area isn't where I would choose to settle, but the sailing is good. |

GB: Once again GB your insight is totally valuable....now that you have had to join the witness protection program again and that you are living in the Minnesota Detroit Lakes area is good. How is your job at the local 7/eleven working out. i hope that the afternoon shift is more to your liking and post more photos of you in with your Walmart vest. |

OD: I could swear that I've heard ES's wife use those same words...who could blame her? I would guess that SH has been eternally grateful to her...saved her from a life of....well...not pretty. |

I think that was about the time that ES moved to SJ and started raising goats. |

I would think goat manure would lend a distinct flavor to the weed too. I understand that patients are lining up to get a script for his medical marijuana.

ES: Is it true that California quality control standards require you to sample each Mary Jane batch before distribution to your patients? Even if the batch is only one or two leaves? |

But it's all worth it when ES leads his herd down the SJ main drag in the Cinco de Mayo goat parade. |

ES: Do you milk those goats? A package of goat cheese for Christmas would be a welcome gift...and I thought I'd gone rural! I still find it very curious that one of your goats is named after my ex...especially since you were both at S'Eastern. It would upset me greatly if I thought you got part of the gold mine while I got the shaft!

When ES learned that SH was going to be the queen of the goat parade he started feeding his kids growth hormone because he knows the guy with the biggest goats always gets the girl. |
