Sweet home

Chicago.......34 years ago this weekend I roamed the steers of Chicago in my dress white uniform straight outta boot camp..... today I have returned to cheer on streaking Mets verse the White Sox....so much has changed in 34 years....I am feeling old and a little sad...autumn has come early, but at least we got to see it...

I guess "maddog" doesn't remember the story! He needs some of the Jack!

Alvarez was a strange character of the Night, I met him at the end of both of our naval stints.....he drank whiskey like it was water and barely spoke a word or two of English. ....I hope he made it out of Mississippi alive and back to his beloved Panama City on Florida gulf coast...I only knew him for twelve hours but boy did he ever leave an impression on me.
