3. Painting my bike and riding it.
4. My dad taking us to California Via. car. It was amazing. We saw so much, I couldn't even begin to tell you. It was in 1960. Route 66 all the way from Chicago.
1. St Lukes Racine
2. intelligent and always asking why.
3. anything mechanical. I rebuilt a Studebaker flat head six when I was 12. No help from dad, just the big Chiltons book. I think he was surprised it ran afterwords.
4. When I came to understand the world of myth. I was four or five, and had a baby tooth fall out. Mom kept checking to see if I was asleep, and I heard her complain to Dad that, "That kid is never going to go to sleep." I feined sleep by going totally limp and unresponsive the next time she came in. When I found out who the tooth fairy was, I understood all the invisible people you never see were just make believe. At five I understood god is an adult make believe and never took religion seriously thereafter.
1. St. Mary's Hospital, Racine, WI
2. Tomboy.

Drew, I forgot to tell you and all the others, to Have a Good Weekend too!
