Recall Pittman Park? We used to screw with the birds all of the time there. I went there again just a few weeks ago and, sure enough, the bird house was still there.
LOL, nice. I remember hearing a bunch of BHS stories - one in particular involved some Jewish kids throwing day old bagels at cars and stuff. When one of the bagels hit a car at "Cafe Miami", a bunch of Tony Montana looking dudes came out shooting!
hard for me to say since after my family immigrated to this country we only stayed in an apartment for about 3 years or so until we moved into the house that my parents still live in today. the only thing i remember about the apartment is one halloween night when it was raining like crazy, i then remember our downstairs neighbor was arrested for being a drug dealer my mom was scared out of her mind since that neighbor was always friendly to her and helped around the apt whenever she needed something. whats odd is i vividly remember the drive over and seeing our new house for the first time when I was 6 as if it happened yesterday.
Well, as stated above, I frequented Bellaire from 87 on. As of 88, it was named Pittman. Not sure when it was first called that, though. For the record, here is where I lived my childhood: 72-77-various. 77-84-Baytown 84-85-Valdez, AK 85-87-Kingwood 87-90-Bellaire And, FWIW, I just met up with a girl I went to school with in Baytown this past weekend. We reconnected through Facebook, but I hadn't seen her in 25 years! Very cool experience.
