Greeting fellow Braves.
I am enjoying summer break from school. Yup, still look forward to days off and I must admit, still like playing "hookie" after all these years. I will be turning 65 this summer (remember: I was a year older than most of you since I could not speak English when I arrived in Ohio in the 2nd grade). I am getting all this paperwork from Medicare about which plan I want to choose...but Medicare? Seriously? Isn't that for really old people? Old people that talk incessantly about their ill health and crab about all the aches and pains? Wait...that IS me. LOL I still move around enough to be active...but that is a relative term.
Steve VW, I was reading your past post about your momories of Wallace Lake. I have a recollection you, me, and Ed Zelaski paddling around in the middle of the lake, consuming adult beverages in my 2 man rubber raft. I remember the pissed off park rangers on their megaphones telling us to "bring that raft ashore". Apparently my water craft was not registered with the state, so I ended up taking my act to Coe Lake where I could float around with no harassment from enforcement types. Now that was a cool lake; kind of like a Walden's Pond in the middle of Berea. They've developed that area since then, with gazebos, fountains, bridges, and pathways. We all know that time doesn't stand still so a bit of "progress" must be expected. I must admit Berea has done a fine job retaining the small town atmosphere.
