The old home place

Not our old home place, it actually belonged to a certain Minges family in Rocky Mount oh so many years ago. But it was my first apartment, and you can buy it for less than $140K if you play your cards right. This is a picture of the front of the house; I never saw that part as I was not allowed either into or in front of the house. Many of you know me, wonder why?

This was my view. I was allowed to park on the grounds in front of the left garage door, not the right one, the left one. Visitors had to park on the street. Mike Filliettaz lived behind me, and my father made a ladder out of old pipe so I could climb off the shed under the stairs and get on the ladder to see Mike. Some nights that wasn't too easy.

But you didn't tune in to read about my old apartment, you want to know about our son and his new adventure. Jay begins coaching soccer tonight. He will coach Cooper's 4 year old team; should be a lot of fun.

Oh and Jackson; he's in college, more later.
