Memory Lane

You may have thought that when we lived in Redondo Beach we lived on Ralston Lane. Actually, I think it was Memory Lane. And in Placentia when we thought we lived on Swanson Avenue...no it was really Memories Avenue. Fast forward to Pocatello where we lived on Spaulding and Centennial- really just another version of our own Memory Street or Road.
Pictures paint a thousand words and fill me with thousands of memories.

We didn't live in the house on Spaulding very long- but think of the memories provided in that short time-

• the downstairs shower was too short for John of Jeff to stand up in
• thinking that the school was providing the trumpet we didn't rent one for Shaunika until the night before chair tryouts - and she still place for "first chair" beating out the two boys who had alternately had first chair
• the big pot of clam chowder that Judy brought over
  
• dad had to drive the U-haul to work so I had the van to take Jeff to ISU early mornings for band practice
• I took Birke for a haircut and he told the lady he wanted it cut like Batman's - with 2 pokes
• Merika started her second year of second grade
