HELLO OLD & NEW FRIENDS,
HOPE EVERYONE IS DOING WELL & LOOKING FOWARD TO THE REUNION. I WAS READING THE DAILY NEWS THIS MORNING AND FOUND AN INTERESTING ARTICLE. THERE IS A CAR MECHANIC WHO IS LEGALLY BLIND. WHAT REALLY GOT MY ATTENTION WAS WHERE THE ARTICLE INFORMS YOU, WHERE THE GARAGE IS LOCATED. THE "PARK STRATTON" AREA. I JUST THOUGHT THIS WAS THE STRANGEST THING. I BELIEVE THIS GARAGE IS ON THE CORNER OF BEACH AVE & EAST TREMONT. IT WAS CALLED ROCKY'S, WHEN I WAS A KID. WE USE TO DRIVE THE MECAHNICS CRAZY. WE WOULD RIDE OUR BIKES OVER THE WIRING THAT RANG A BELL. SO EVERYTIME THE MECHANICS THOUGHT A CAR WAS PULLING IN FOR GAS. IT WAS 1 OF US, RIDING AROUND THE BLOCK. I JUST WANT TO KNOW, WHEN DID SOMEONE START CALLING IT "PARK STRATTON"? I JUST STARTED GETTING USE TO CALLING IT STRATTON PARK! HAVE A GREAT DAY. STAY SAFE DEAR FREINDS.....
