Donna, Have a wonderful visit with your family in England. I suppose Clayton is home taking care of the horses and farm. If you have internet access, check out

HiGlenn,

Yes, having a good time with our daughter and family. I have been babysitting our 10-year-old grandson while his parents went off to the south of France! Due home any minute now. They live in the village of Lower Benefield - now try to find that! Not much here at all, but tomorrow is a church fete, just up the road from us, so will be going to that. Came over on QM2.

As for Al Green's, you will have to help me. It seems Clayton and I went there after the prom with a group and I should think you and your date were part of it, as Henry Birk, Bill Dankert, Bill Newbold, and dates were too. Do you remember? Otherwise, I was never at Al Green's. I did go into the site you gave, and read all the messages. Very interesting. It's funny how neighborhood-grouped we all were. I grew up on Dorman St., just two streets west of Tech, and that where I "hung" out - and there wasn't much of that: Freund's Drug Store was the place. I remember the "older" boys (were they 17, 18, 19) coming into the drug store in their uniformas. But mostly I just played and had a good time. Homework from Tech was not included in this! (I don't care if you do keep pointing out that I made Honor Roll -it had to be a mistake!).

Glenn, do you remember, or can you look it up, whether there were co-valedictorians when we graduated, because I was at Tech last October and it seems there was a plaque up on the second floor of the Arsenal (a thousand steps up!) that said so, --Clayton and Nancy Foxworthy. Clayton wants to know and I won't be back in Indianapolis until next October and you have ways to find out things

Now, did you say the guy had finished his book about Al Green's or not? I will have to go back to your message to see.

Yes, Clayton is left at home tending to horses and getting hay hauled in - a very important job. Luckily we have a grandson and a daughter who help (she has two horses).

Was Al Green's where you could see the free movies? I seem to remember that we hung out down the road at another drive-in. Was it Laughner's? Was a good place to pick up a drag race for Post Road.
