music, thoughts, books, dreams, more

Just my world of dreams, music and thoughts. Author of two books, one a novel of Love stories set in Framingham, Mass, Secrets of the Heart the 2nd book an autobiography of growing up in Framingham, Mass. Small Town America, Framingham My generation was the first teenage generation, that was when the word was coined. Ours was the generation that started cruising through town and to the drive in theater and drive in restaurant. In our area, Ernie Kampersal,from Holliston, drove his bucking car through town, picking up girls. It rose in the air, like a stallion! We went to the soda shops and played the juke boxes. It was a different town, a different time, and it belonged to us!

Charlie Barnet - Skyliner

Did you know that commercial air travel did not begin until after the 2nd World War?  The skyliner was the silver bird that took us places that we never could have gone in such short time.  The first plane I flew on, had a wheel at the tail, much like the B52 bombers of the war, probably was a version of that?
