Geeze....I had much fancier summer jobs than you did...cleaning out
boilers, loading trucks and freight cars, drinking beer.

I had the normal, teenaged type jobs.


Worked for a retired doctor and helped him build his own, private 9 hole
golf course.

Gas station pump jockey and general gofor.

Bus boy at Les Shaw's in New Haven.

Caddy at that private golf course on Pulaski highway, just north of New
Haven,

later, back in MA and while attending college:

Humping furniture for Bekin's Moving and Storage.

Final finish detailer at Boston Whaler (back when they were in Rockland,
MA)

Damn...you worked at Les Shaw's!
I seem to remember it was located on Whalley Avenue, near the Pond Lily
manufacturing plant. What I mostly remember about that particular area
was the Feast of the Assumption the Italian Catholic churches held each
year at the foot of the Merritt Parkway where it crossed Whalley.

Just a little way from there, as you went towards West Rock and the
tunnel, a longtime friend of my father's owned a truck farm, of all things.

Hey...I remember two farms in your neck of New Haven...Zeider's Egg Farm
and a turkey farm whose name I can't remember. I do remember Zeider's,
because I dated the farmer's daughter, Gail Zeider, for a while. She
went to Amity Regional... Hmmm. I dated a lot of girls from Amity. Nice
girls.

My memory is hazy, but I think Les Shaw's was just south of the beginning of
the West Rock tunnel. Yup. I walked around with a big, stupid chef's hat,
carrying a basket of "Popovers".

I also remember Zeiders, but Gail was *way* too old for me. :-)

Yikes. I thought we were the same age. Did you know any of the Aronson
boys? Peter was a sometime friend of mine, two years younger, though,
and he was graduated from Amity. Might have been your classmate. How
about Susie Somers, the long-haired brunette? She was in a lot of school
plays. Again, she might have been a contemporary of yours. I dated her
older sister, Margie.

Did you ever visit the Nature Center up on West Rock?

With full recognition to certain NG "lurkers", I refuse to answer.
Actually, I admit I have many hours logged at West Rock.

I think I remember Somers ... not sure. I went to Amity High for 2 and a
half years, leaving half way through my senior year to move back to MA. I
think that was in 1967 or 1968, I can't remember.

Nobody is your age.

Except for Methuselah - and I heard you were older than him.

I was going to make a really smart ass comment, but I decided not to
out of respect for your relative youth.

Wouldn't do to corrupt the nation's "yute"...

Gail was a very pretty and nice young lady. She was also "built" like
Annette Funicello.
