Just think how lucky I was to grow up there-it was a great place to grow up in. I knew almost everyone in town and everyone knew me-made it almost impossible to do anything wrong without mom knowing before I got home. As a kid I played with a friend who lived next to the aerodrome so I watched it grow and grow to what it is now. I had a younger brother go to the CIA-an excellent school! With the Roosevelt and Vanderbilt mansions down the street and Astors estate in my back yard it was full of history.My mom still lives there so I still get to visit.
