SEVENTH STREET PART 4 (JUNKING)
Ever hear of going junking? Well that's what we did when I was a kid living on Seventh Street. My Dad had an old pickup truck and on the weekend he would round up us kids and we would all climb in the back of the truch and junking we would go! Back then there were still alleys and the old metal garbage cans.. we would drive up and down the alleys in the richer neighborhoods. I would be on the tailgate as he drove slowly through the alleys we would see a bunch of neat stuff next to the old garbage cans.. good stuff! There would be couches, appliances, toys, all kinds of things that the rich people just threw away! It was so much fun.. just like a treasure hunt! I loved going junking... we would come home dirty and tired but with a truckload of treasures. One man's junk is another man's treasure!! Will write more soon as I can..

SEVENTH STREET PART 3 (FRED)
Seventh Street saga continues.. We all put up with the fact the house was haunted.. It was not that bad since being so young it was kind of exciting to me. Let me tell you about Fred.. now I know I'm not going in exact order of things in my life but the fun and wierd things are what I want to write about. Fred was our goose.. yes our goose. We had many animals ducks and chickens and cats and dogs.. But Fred was unique. He wore a blue bandana around his neck... he was a hippie goose..lol.. Anyway he folllowed my Dad everywhere like a dog would... Wherever my Dad or us kids were there was Fred. He was a watch goose too.. He did not let any strangers in our yard, if someone he didn't know came in the yard he would lower his neck and start honking and attack the person.. he was mean if he didn't know the person.. Fred saved us a few times at night when some stranger came to break in or hurt us. Fred was right there... he atttacked them and ran the intruder away. He was better then a watch dog.. He was with us for many years.. He dissappeared one day.. our theory is he packed a little bag on a stick and went hitch hiking down Seventh Street!

SEVENTH STREET PART TWO ( HAUNTED)
After moving in to Seventh Street things of a wierd nature started happening right away.. I know the house was haunted, I felt it then and still believe it to this day. Let me tell you about some of the scary things that happened..My Mom's dresser in her room was full of breakable items on the top of the dresser and one night she yelled out to come look quick. I ran in there to see her dresser was almost tipped completely over and everything had fallen except the breakable items! We all pushed it back up right but it was unexplainable how that happened. At night in us girl's room we would be woken by an eerie wailing sound and we all three would see a big red eye on one of the walls.. It was very real.. we were wide awake! I guess this is one reason our rent was almost nothing... The toilet would flush on it's own at night.. nobody was even near the bathroom. With no place else to go we accepted the fact that our little house was haunted.. More to come later...

MY JOURNEY ON SEVENTH STREET (PART 1)
When I was 5 years old my family and I moved into a house on what was to become known as the house on Seventh Street.. Wow the times I had on my journey through my childhood in that house. I had two sisters and two brothers all of us just a year apart. My younger brother and me were both born the same year.. me in January him in December.... eleven months apart. My Mom wanted lots of kids..and fast. I was 5, like I said, and my oldest sister the oldest of us was 8 years old. When we moved in on Seventh Street it was so crazy.. being the early sixities hippies had lived there before us. The walls were all painted psychedelic and with things like Flower Power and such painted everywhere. We were rather poor then so it was what we had to deal with or be homeless. There was a building in front of our house that had a Spanish restaurant business.. I'll tell you about that later! Well we moved all in and the journey on Seventh Street began.. Much to tell you this will be continued...
