All gone

Maybe I have lived too long. I was just thinking, the house I grew up in at 319 South Brown Street in Dayton, Ohio is gone, a freeway goes directly over where the house used to be.

The ship I served on in the Navy, the USS William Mitchell, TAP114, has been cut up for scrap.

The Nevada Club and Harold's Club where I worked in Reno, Nevada are torn down.

A lot of my past is gone.
