I was in 8th grade. We lived in Fairview Park. They let the bigger kids out at noon and we all walked home. They kept the little kids at school. I remember later in the day walking toward the elementary school to collect my sister. We only had one car in those days and dad was not any where near home yet. Mom was home with my baby brother.

I found my sister about half way home and we made it home safe. She was in 4th grade. My dad made it home only to be activated. (National Guard). I remember getting stuck in the driveway on Saturday because my mom insisted that I go to catechism class. LOL

[P.O.E.]

I used to like to drive down the old back country roads with my lights off (back then there was zero traffic) Just to admire the beauty of the snow-covered fields.
