Thanks Scott
I probably would have not remebered as much detail as I do if the tale hadn't been retold at every single family function for the ensuing thirtysome years. As the youngest child and only grandson on both sides, my having been a very adventurous and precocious child created many tales for the family to tell. My sister always referred to them as "The never ending adventures of life with Jon Paul"
The immediate family, including my sister, are all gone now, so now I'm actually enjoying being the one telling the stories!!!
