Art, Mike and Me 1960

Art's pink and gray Buick was his first car. He came from Ohio to Arkansas to see us in the summer of 1960

In 1960 after graduation I returned to Ohio to visit and purchased my first car, a two-tone Cream and Copper 1956 Chevy Belaire. Unfortunately, I allowed a friend to drive it after visiting girl friends who where in a church camp in central Ohio. This picture was taken in 1961 after the car was fixed before I enlisted in the Air Force. I returned to Sharon Center after basic training to get it. Mom used it for awhile when I was in Japan but when she needed money she traded it in for a much older car for cash difference. I was spittin' nails when I found out.

1961 One of those curious coincidences, this is Sue before I met her by the house where her grandmother Whitsett lived. This house was next door to the house my mother lived when I came home on leave from basic training.

1961 My mother's house next door to Sue's grandmother's home, months before I meet Sue. I was home on leave from basic at Lackland AFB before my assignment to tech school at Goodfellow AFB

1962 - Art and I were diving for fishing lures caught up in under water weeds and tree branches in Sugar Loaf Lake south of Fort Smith. We filled the tackle box in the boat with our rescued treasures.
