This is a reminisce exclusively dealing with childhood so let’s skip about the hood Were any of you standing in the alley at Rudows Friday night with a raffle trying to win a pony? I never won but by the picture she shared Donna had a horse to ride thanks to her shutter bugging We have a photo journal of sorts that preserve our precious memories and I thought Reed handled it I guess he holds the distinction for Pana news Photography and over the years has done a fine job Can’t forget George’s how about Mr. murry from murry’s TV skating at Price skating rink I bet every one Got one of those famous rides home Mr. Price and his wife would have that little truck full almost Dragging the bottom and I swear it didn’t matter where you lived you had a free ride home. That was Pana sorry girls will leave you out a moment but Whities pool hall any one for cut throat or a little game In the back, or watch his son the pool shark clean out a sucker who tried to beat Greg. I could never get My head around and miss prim and proper school teacher misses white is mother and wife all those Years if she went there she was dressed like Jackie Onassis dark sunglasses London fog rain coat and Head scarf remember those I don’t care there are two killer women one in a silk colorful head scarf and A long haired beauty in a cow boy hat I guess it would look better in jeans. Can’t leave this out on that Note a long skip out of our town into our country Colorado Springs at a chevron gas station sorry here I Go boy talking this vision picture Raquel Welch I can’t believe I didn’t miss spell her name I got from School what was important then add Sophia Loren blue jeans so tight if she gave you change and Dropped a coin and hit those pants any where dude, do some serious ducking because its ricochet time That sounds French how appropriate those French think of everything even the speech therapist at Lincoln school wa la one heart attack at a time please even this flash light I use to type in the dark is Getting hot back to this vision now finish with a Dolly Parton top without going to a weird extreme then Long black raven hair and don’t dare ask me what did she sound like who was listening my Cherokee Eyes probably were clear back past my ears. Then the most gorgeous cooperies skin I want to know how In the red man’s crap did they lose, First Colorado and then the rest of the war? Well I had my own set Of problems the girl in the my car would have been a little up tight if I would have hailed her a cab it was A long way back to Pana and I don’t think this was a liberal section of Colorado Springs where her Husband over in the gas station would let his wife date. By this time I didn’t look to bad and I started My life long effort of mastering the use of words but on the inside I was pretty much a dufus I will take An out the stars were not lined up I couldn’t even figure out some way if only the gas tank would run Down the gutter you no a never filled tank well two things my jaw was tired of laying on the ground and Wearing a gas hose and nozzle for a necktie I didn’t think I could pull it off literally sorry after that Recounting this fool isn’t going back to our town as the hippie mixed with a beatnik would say I’m gone.
