Body:
I remember getting my first bike, learning to ride it, and just taking off to ride for hours. What a feeling of freedom! At the time we lived at 14th & Wilson, so just rode up and down all of those old streets exploring. My brother George & I belonged to scout troop 273 at Mitchell School, with scoutmaster Herb Solano. What a great guy - he called us all 'men' (we were 11 and up, after all). Paul belonged to troop 71 at Mt. Carmel. When we wee younger, the cub scout master was Keith Pierce, from whom we learned so much. My Mom served as den mother. I still have those wooden bookends we made. The Mt. Carmel 7th & 8th graders played flag football against the other Catholic schools in the Valley. Uniforms consisted of white t-shirts onto which my Mom stencilled letters with the school name & a numeral. Tim Barkac played quarterback; we also had Louie Franco, Ross Thompson, Cecil Hernandez and some other stars. We liked going to the 4th of July fireworks at Sun Devil Stadium. Will never forget those particular smoky vapors that wafted in the warm evening.
