White Plains NY is the town where I was born. Some of the folks from there created a fb page about it, and they've been finding some of the most outrageous pictures that I thought would be fun to share.
This first one is a Civil War parade from 1884. If you look into the distance to the base of Chatterton hill, I used to live about three or four blocks to the right, and used to traverse every square foot of that hill at some point in my childhood.

This other picture is from the senior prom the year I graduated. I always remember Sam the Sham and the Pharoahs performing at my prom, but now that I recall it better, I went to the senior prom in my junior year with a girl I was "kind of dating" who was a senior. I didn't go to my senior prom because I was working and there was no one I was particularly interested in going with. What a dope. I could have seen the Temptations in our gym. Instead of My Girl, I opted for Wooly Bully. Doh! And I even helped decorate the place. Doh, Doh!
