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!

Vera Lynn - When The Lights Go On Again.

Oh, how we filled with hope when we heard this song play on our radio's back in Framingham, Mass, in the early 1940's.  Mom and I would sing this song, and tears come to me now, as I think of those days when we  hoped and prayed our uncles would come home from the war alive and well.  Some of them were wounded, but they all came home!  How lucky we where!  Not all families saw their loved ones come home!
