The pause that refreshes, a nice trip down memory lane, thanks for sharing these Dave, gets my Sunday off to a good start.
The FC windowed bus/van…dang what neat machine. Is it wrong to be in love with inanimate object?
Or, is it inanimate…hmmm
Scouting Ranch, Well that depends, it’s open to interpretation.
When I was in Sister Mary Robert’s 3rd grade, (1950’s NJ) I would doodle draw pencil sketches of FC 150 windowed bus/vans, for a kid who was 8 years old, this was an innovative idea, I had never seen such a vehicle. One day while the good sister was droning on, she caught me doodlling FC 150’s, she grabbed the drawing and said to me; “these are very good, but not on my time,” gave them back to me after class. I still have them stashed away.
Mike: You’ve always been a troublemaker, haven’t you? lol … my wife has Sister Eileen stories. Ann was a bit of a wayward child when attending public school. Her dad was sick with Huntington’s when Ann was young, which kept her mother very busy. So, Ann attended elementary School when she felt like it. Eventually, her mother found out about her wayward habits, pulled her from public school, and sent her to a Catholic school. Even there she was a bit of a troublemaker, too (spent lots of time pulling weeds on the school lawn, hence the Sister Eileen stories).
Dave, next to Willys Jeep Tales from the past, Catholic school stories are the best, these two subjects, i never run out of stories to tell. Ann & I would have a lot to talk about.
