About Green Valley Gazette
It was a more innocent place and time in America—a dead-end street surrounded by fields and woods where a gang of kids ran free. Fifty years later, members of that gang have reconnected and are sharing their memories on this group blog. This version of the Green Valley Gazette is a successor to a mimeographed newsletter by the same name that some of the kids put together back then.

I know very well the spot from which this picture was taken. Sometime in the mid 60's, Wayne Brady and I found an old tire and were playing all over the street with it. Wayne rolled it from the Fisher's front yard and it almost hit Mrs Cummings who was washing her car.
ReplyDeleteI modified Shelley's post to make it a model for "family census" posts. Anyone should feel free to edit this post to add additional info, photos etc.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite images from Green Valley is the sight of that hill behind Hodil's farm in the fall, when it was all red, orange and yellow. Does anyone have a picture of that?
ReplyDeleteThe Aruffo's had a third child - Christopher I think.
