Wow!  You had a long ride.  My dad worked along Souther Boulevard for the Fire Department.  Did your grandparents ever complain about 32E, the building maintenance union?  Not a very upstanding group.  I had to take the subway from 200th to 14th St to get to the Hayes annex as a freshman.  The next three years I took the IRT to the main building on 149th, though sometimes my friend Kelly and I would hitxh-hike down the Grand Concourse.  Why?  Because we weren't supposed to.

One day of living, and loving, is better than to have never lived, or loved, or been loved at all.

a butterfly.  Some don't even have that.

Thanks for filling me in.  I knew that area so well as a kid, before the Bronx High School of Science moved in.  Summers we were able to swim BA two sessions a day in the Clinton pool, and the only charge was two bars of soap.  Ever rent a rowboat on Van Cortlandt Lake?
