Condolences to Rodzinski on his garage door mishap

vixmom · « **Reply #69 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:39:52 AM »

We have never parked in our garage

The lawn mower, snowblower, various ladders, gardening implements, summer gazebo, pop up tents and quite possibly Ameila Earnhardt and her plane reside therein

It was nice to see Iris, sending hugs!

Miracle vibes for BK and Co.

I was at Niagra Falls twice, once as a child of 7 or 8 with my parents and little brother who was about 3. The baby stayed with my aunt and uncle whom we were visiting in Rochester.

The second time was when I was 19 and on a church trip to a Youth Convention in Buffalo.

vixmom · « **Reply #75 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:48:36 AM »

I found it beautiful and awe inspiring both times

vixmom · « **Reply #76 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:49:38 AM »

Recalling that second trip reminds me of a story

The time I was frisked by, and my bag searched by the Secret Service charged with protecting then VP Gerald Ford

vixmom · « **Reply #78 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:52:38 AM »

Someone had planned a reception of some sort for said VP in the very same hotel in which a Lutheran Youth Convention was taking place.

This would

have been Spring 1974 I guess

vixmom · « **Reply #80 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:53:49 AM »

Oh so I was 17 not 19

vixmom · « **Reply #81 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:54:21 AM »

In any event there were protests going on outside the hotel

vixmom · « **Reply #82 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:55:15 AM »

I still remember the chant " Jail Nixon! Jail Ford! Jail the rich and free the poor!"

vixmom · « **Reply #83 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:55:54 AM »

The protesters were dressed remarkably like we convention attendees, being the 1970's

vixmom · « **Reply #84 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:56:46 AM »

Mostly jeans and workboots and denim shirts and hair bandannas

vixmom · « **Reply #85 on:** November 06, 2023, 10:59:19 AM »

On Saturday evening (as I recall), there were about 100 protesters outside, a couple of hundred convention attendees inside and fancy schmancy political types in all their finery arriving in limos for the political thing

My friend Steven and I were trying to go downstairs to meet our group for dinner but the elevators were filled with rambunctious teenagers riding up and down and being silly

vixmom · « **Reply #87 on:** November 06, 2023, 11:02:55 AM »

Afraid of getting trouble for being late we decided to take the stairs

vixmom · « **Reply #88 on:** November 06, 2023, 11:03:14 AM »

Only somehow we ended up in the service stairs

vixmom · « **Reply #89 on:** November 06, 2023, 11:03:58 AM »

And walked out into the ballroom filled with tuxedos and gowned folks
