How about some stories or comments from the younger Alumnus?

I'd like to hear from some of the younger crowd as my ramblings are based upon times before "Pork and Beans". The Streetcar was important to us in Nuroad and Berkeley as we were out in "The Sticks". It was the only mode of transportation for many families who relied on the "Dinky" to connect them to the Kirkwood-Ferguson Car to make a Wellston shopping run. In the 30's and 40's, Wellston was "The Place" to shop. It was a Friday night family custom to converge on Easton Avenue to do their shopping. There was Katz Drugstore, Walgreens, Piggly Wiggly, Central Hardware, Western Auto, J & R Auto, Sally Anne, Alberts Shoe store, Deluxe Hamburger, White Castle, Muehlings Grocery Store and many street vendors trying to make a buck during the hard time 30's. In those days, you could walk the side streets and not have to be armed with an AK-47. Today, it would be a survival requirement!

So...how about some of your memories. Do you remember Ice Skating on Schweitzer's Pond, Champ's Pond and Ramona Lake? Or perhaps you have some more contemporaneous memories to share with us. I have a few stories I will save about what happened around the fire at Ramona Lake for later. Emails accepted 24/7!
