Brian Aldrich - Age 3 or 4 - Mariposa Ave. - L.A. 1959

Brian Aldrich - Age 3 or 4 - Mariposa Ave. - L.A. 1959

This picture defines me. Look at that arm. Who did I learn that from? From 1956 till 1959, we lived on Mariposa Ave. just north of Imperial Highway. We went to St. Cabrini Catholic Church down the street. My father used to take me on walks to the local high school to watch the football players practice. My strongest memory is hearing the crickets at night from the empty fields across the highway. They were louder than the cars. We moved to 148th Street in Gardena sometime in 1959 or 1960.
