Bogalusa Blues and Heritage Festival

I went the spring semester of 66. My head wasn't into it at the time and I joined the Air Force in the fall of 66.
I recall going to a football game when I was home on vacation. Might have been 70

 

To do it well. Just thinking of SRV or Clapton singing makes me cringe. Blues is dead buddy, just like jazz.

 

yep

 

Oh I hadn't made it to McNeese yet. In fact I was at Wildwood Elementary in Baton Rouge.

 

Are you black?

 

Rode through the old neighborhood a couple weeks ago and understand why you'd ask me that. Back then though, it was predominantly white.

 

I went to Magnolia Woods elementary. The neighborhood is still mostly white but the school is almost all black now. Their basketball team would kill ours if we were still the same age.

 

I went to a pre-school. Reynolds or Ronalds, not sure. Ever hear of it? All I remember is the name. Don't recall what it looked like or where it was.

 

Was it Runnels Academy? My nephews went there. I think they have all grades through high school. It's located out Harrells Ferry Road

 

May have been. Can't remember.
