Guy. Wonderful pictures. Thanks. Keep those pictures coming. Winston Allison
Good job, Guy! Amazing picture.
Guy Great photos..just to think we used to play tackle football on the patch of grass.. had to dodge the doggie gifts,as well as the other players..and keep an eye peeled for the men in blue who would take our ball because we were not allowed to play there. Played on the patch from the u turn to the red top house.. Lots of fun and did not know the difference.. Lad
Hi Lad, I remember some of those football games, played in a few. I also remember a few ball hockey games on sixth avenue. RP
