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!

A song of longing was to become so important to the young men that were drafted, and quickly sent off to foreign shores...leaving behind the sound of the horn, that followed them in their minds, trailing a melody and a memory of their loved ones,as they crossed the ocean on troop ships. The ocean liners where conscripted and put into the service for transporting our men.
