International Youth MeetingSummer, 1973


International Youth MeetingSummer, 1973
Originally uploaded by anslatadams

This was taken in the summer of 1973!What a glorious time that was! I will never forget it. Those are my friends from my church.L-R Dwight D. Lyman, Peggy Granade, and Craig Lyman. Thiswas the first time in our young lives that we travelled all the way from Georgia to Boston,MA! At least for me it was!
We met young people our age from ALL OVER THE WORLD, just like here on Flickr. It was wonderful. We followed the Freedom Trail and went to the old North Church, saw Paul Revere's statue, saw the cemetery at Bunker Hill. We literally saw where the American Revolution was born and where tyranny was stood down! :-) Wow! To a young person my age, it was the best trip since I had gone to Germany at 6 years of age. We stayed in the dormitory of Boston University and we could see the Charles River! Never saw Dennie Crane or Alan Shore! LOL! I was behind the camera. I think
this photo was taken with a Kodak Instamatic Camera (also one seen in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" when Richard Dreyfuss was struggling to slam the cartridge into the camera! lol)

About Me

My photo
I can be very social, but then a recluse. I like my privacy when I'm working in my flower garden. I like to meditate there with God and the birds and the flowers. I love animals, all God's creatures and I can't stand people that abuse them! I strongly urge anyone that wants a pet to adopt from your local animal shelter. There are many loving animals that are at shelters waiting for a loving home. You can find me most of the time on Flickr where I have a photostream!
