March Memories

The windy, rainy days of Winter are fading and sunshine, lollypops and rainbows take their place. Spring is arriving, signaled by daffodils smiling at us from all directions. St. Patrick's Day was always "a hoot". Most everyone wants to be a Leprechaun for a day at some point in their life. Reality is wearing on many - just ninety days and we have a diploma and are all grown up. Then what? In the meantime, most of us are children by law so why change course? Conditions by March are such that we can resume activities that had taken a rest... Like racing our beach buggies. Our class owned three of these pieces of ... art. Marc Black, Belford & Rebottaro, and Blackmon & Reuser owned the pink slips on these champions. Every race they participated in our senior year they always placed in the top three. The machines are probably somewhere in China's metal wholesalers possession, but we are working on Marc, Dave and Merle to take the Green Flag in a fifty yard footrace on Main Street Cloverdale.
