It keeps moving around though. It started out as the Boston Room, and then I had to move it to a place I called the Milwaukee Room, and now it is just the Braves Corner. I don't know how to put pictures on the blog or I would show you my Braves stars such as Babe Ruth, Warren Spahn, Eddie Matthews, and that other guy that colinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14235038353338949636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709698839135404853.post-62848586107899635912010-02-06T22:29:19.215-06:002010-02-06T22:29:19.215-06:00John, I want to add a Heavener tidbit to your Mant...John, I want to add a Heavener tidbit to your Mantle lore. Mickey Mantle's sister, Barbara, has lived in Del City for many years. She was a secretary at Del City HIgh School. Her children attended Townsend Elementary where I taught years ago. One of Barbara's daughters, Cindy, moved to Poteau and raised her family there. Cindy's son Matt would be a great-nephew to Mickey Mantle.

I rounded up 7 cents (Mantle's number) to help you get on your way to Yankee Stadium. That should get you out to the city limits of Tyler. From there, you're on your own, but wait, more donations may be on the way.Jim Pattersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02605657841798486482noreply@blogger.com
