My dad had a house 619 and 1/2 E. Marion St. It was right behind the Caddy dealership which was across from the county jail. My brother and I would sneak through the dealership at night, get on the roof and fire bottle rockets at the jailhouse wall. What was that , King st? Zangari's ring a bell?
I used to go to the ropes course at the public pool. Ever been? I think its still there. Used to go to McCaskey. After school we would ride our bikes behind the school to where the old man would fire rock salt at us. We could hear the shot then the salt rain down on the tree leaves. I forget the old man's name.
Used to ride our bikes out to Strasburg to see the trains. There was a cool army navy store in downtown Lancaster. The Delorean dealer by the train station. The Hoar House? Ride out to the junkyards and come back with 50 mil in hubcaps. There where some other cool places to ride around the town. We used to go to the BMX track in Lititz ( pronounced- Le tits).
My dad worked for a publishing house, they had a piper and would let me fly. They taught me how to pull zero g's which was their fault. I think the airport was right outside of town past the stockyards on the road to Le tits. What was that 511, 501? One of those roads. I worked on a dairy farm out around Manheim. Used to tube the Conastoga from Ephrata to I don't know where... Brownstown? I had a girlfriend there, still remember her cute little...
Didn't happen to be Kreiders where you worked in Manheim, did it? My old man worked there in the early 80's. Was actually a pretty good job, $1500 a month with free housing and all the milk and eggs you and your family could handle. I was born not to far away. Spent some time in Blueball before moving north. Still have family in LeTits. lol What's with the names of towns down there? Lititz, Blueball, Intercourse? Some repressed amish folk for sure.
