All I know is, it was a ten-mile walk, uphill both ways. And it was always snowing.

When did you go to the Shrine? My dad's side went there from about 1955-1977 and then my siblings went from 1993ish-2009. After 50 yrs of being at that parish, we still have no respect. Shrine has become very snobbish. "Shrine of the Silver Dollar" we call it.

DeLaSalle, just like the old man and all of my uncles.
Only fitting, since my Grandfather helped the Bros. endow the school and we all lived over on Rosemary. I tried to get thrown out, honest to gawd...

I'll stretch this one a little and say that I also went to Cody - took drivers ed there in the summer of 76, driving a Dodge Dart [[I think?) on that tiny little track they had. And my dad threatened to send me to Cooley if I go into any more trouble, after I got into a bit of herbal trouble my freshman year at Saint Marys in 75 and was suspended for three days.

This could be a whole new thread. I took drivers training at Denby in the spring of '73. SMRJim, same thing, a little oval track. I still remember the teacher. Mr. Harms.

I had the same teacher, but I think I took it in Fall of '71. Dumbest way to learn to drive EVER. We drove around in a circle at 15mph and practiced 3-point parking. I got out on the street and freaked out.

My tour around that track was in the fall/winter of 71 as well. At night. Sophmore year. What a waste of time that was. I learned better negotiating the turns at Mt. Olivet Cemetery.
