North Adams, MA

Here is a nice picture of downtown North Adams, Massachusetts. This was the big city for me as a kid. I went to high school in this city and began college here as well. I have not been back in a long long time. Finding this picture brings back many good memories of my high school years.

I remember meeting my parents on Main Street after school in the cold winter. I remember hot coffee and Dunkin Donuts after basketball with friends. I remember Jack's Hot Dog Stand and the best hot dogs. I remember playing baseball on Noel Field. I remember enjoying my four years at Drury High School,. I still actually wear an old high school shirt around occasionally. I remember Friday night basketball at the YMCA. I remember Saturday football games and homecoming parades. North Adams will always have a place in my heart, and even though I am far away these days, I still think of her often and plan to visit again soon.
