Jimmy McVey and Arnolds 1963
This picture was taken next door to Mom's house on Tanner Ave. Dorothy and Dora lived there at one time and Edith at another.
remember this summer with great fondness, graduated, was on my way to the Air Force when summer ended. Before Kankakee I went to Traverse City Michigan with Jack Story who I knew since I was ten. With Jim Zirkelbach we drove from California to Indiana, Jim hitchhiked to New York City and spent the summer with his uncle. Jack and I went to his fathers place and painted houses. Then I hitchhiked down to Kankakee, Helen picked me up from the train station and I stayed with Tom and LIna for about a month. wonderful times
2nd installment. I went back to see Mike, Pat and Rick. Helen picked up me at the train station (where I slept at the age of eight to avoid Seth) and was glad to see Tom and Lina and Mardene. Spent about a month at the farm, two weeks in Peoria and then went home to go into the service. I think when I came back everyone had a chance to get together and I had a good time. Whatever apprehension anyone felt about the boys being split up did not concern me and I told Gertrude there was nothing to apologize about.
