7 Bowling, My favorite time at Mumford was walking into the entrance of the school and listening to the guys singing the Doowop songs in the corridors with such great harmony, James Cheer's hats off to you on this one, You were kicking out soul before we realized what it was....First kiss, first love, first touch, first time, We were young and innocent, our world was just starting to evolve, and revolve, Our music, our clothes, our cars, College, Taking or joining a family business, or going into the military. Vietnam Nam, protester, all of these listed and more, molded a lot us today, front doors open, Walking to school, Friday and Sat make-out parties, slow dances, grinding away, The British Invasion. Of course the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Janis Joplin,
It was time for us to grow up and venture into the world, The Times They Are a- Changin. , I can't wait to just say hello to some old friends that I haven't seen in decades. And just drift back to my old Maroon and Blue....days. Go Mumford Mustangs.......
