Thank you for this page. We must remember our rich and blessed history in this land. Family, neighborhoods and community were so important. Every local school had fairs and bazaars to bring the neighbor together and raise funds for the school. Lee Street Elementary School was one of these schools. Every one walked to school who lived less than 1.9 miles from home. School was held even with a little snow, plus recess and gym were held. School held outside trips regularly to Parks for art drawings, Art Museums, Higgins Museum, Old Sturbridge Village, Science Center, etc.

comment for Linda Brunelle. I remember going to a place called Hawkeye's for 18 cent burgers in the Greendale area back in the 1960's.

I loved V66! The Fools doing "Doo Wah Diddy" filmed in Salem, the New Man video filmed on Newbury Street, Til Tuesday's "Voices Carry" filmed in the South End! I loved trying to identify the locations. It also was great to see all those wonderful local bands -- Extreme, Digney Fignus, does anyone recall a band called The Pencils? I remember watching their videos but it's a vague memory. Thanks, V66, for the memories!

Sorry if someone has already mentioned this but did V66 have the exclusive to A-Ha's Take on Me? I remember there being buzz because MTV didn't have it first. And Digny Fignus! What a great singer and I loved Girl with a Curious Hand!

This is a Massachusetts driving story that took place in New Hampshire. I was in the Fox Run Mall parking lot (around the Dover area), walking out to the car. Suddenly, this maroon mini-van with MA plates came speeding out of nowhere from a parking spot, almost running me over. The lady slammed on her breaks, then rolled down her window and began screaming at me about what I was doing in front of her car. I yelled back that I was walking and she needed to pay better attention. The lady just gave me a dirty look, called me a moron and sped out of the parking lot (almost hitting another car along the way). I know that Massachusetts drives don't think pedestrians don’t have any rights, but seriously.
