Yikes...thank goodness HW is due to arrive later this evening. I gotta get him to teach me to scan...in self-defense.
Actually Bill has more pictures from this era than you can imagine. I have alot too...difference is Bill's are all in picture books..which we all look at time after time..and mine are all in boxes. Maybe we'll share more if the interest is there as time goes on. yeah CQ..Bill went from hardly ever being on his computer to this. The new computer has really created a picture monster! BUt I just cannot express how much fun this era was. And to be able to share it with your 'hero' and his family..plus our ski club family....well there just ain't words. We'll have to let our pictures do the talking.

[Bill, I am so glad you got a new computer and scanner, can only imagine what other treats we are in for, this is awesome!!!] [/QUOTE] Chris: Glad to provide a little entertainment, but I might have to back off a little until I see what John comes up with now that he has called in the high technology help. [Hollywood] I have a vast supply of material to chose from and all legit'....no photo-shopping allowed!! Sad to admit but I was still using my "free" computer given to all Ford employees back around '97 or '98 with the ever popular Windows 98 operating system! Talk about "keep it original"! |

Full disclosure: Yes that is my tube. Given as Christmas gift to my kids by John and Patti when they were 4 and 6. Put up in the attic where it remained for 20+ years. My kids were not allowed to tube!! Recently pulled out this old/new tube and put into service because grandkids are a whole different set of rules!! |

Everytime I see pictures of Bill with the gray sides I think of Maury Finkle.

Thanks...that's a memory refresher. By the way how come no pictures from last weekend's ski session??? I thought we would see more stuff of you and Eddie. [I see plenty of my brother] Did you ever call on the Brookpark Casting Plant in your travels?? Gone....totally freaking Gone when I went by this morning although they will be hauling scrap off the site for months to come! Back in the day we had 10 molding lines working 27 out of a possible 30 shifts....9000+ people in that building alone!! Sad...very sad. |

I have...get the same sick feeling I get when going by the old casting plant site!! How did we get from there to here?? I was out to breakfast yesterday with some guys and one happened to express joy that call centers were returning to our shores....I'm thinking "WOW"...we replace manufacturing with call centers....impressive!! |

We did not bring a camera, so I guess that means we didn't even ski...
Personally no, but we did go there probably once a year. Just cruising Brookpark rd?

Ah yes...cruising Brookpark Road, did that more than a few times!! Tuesday was bowling day and we were backed by a bar on Brookpark named the GiGi Lounge. Obviously had to patronize them and then proceed to work our way west on Brookpark. Worked nights...bowled in the am...rule was "if not home and in bed by 7:30 don't bother to wake me for work". Miss those days but probably couldn't handle it anymore! Here's one from the Brookpark road days.
