Place

This is a tale of growing up in Canfield, Ohio during the 1950's and 60's. While the story follows me, the tale isn't about me.

I wasn't special--just one more baby boomer kid. My memories, the thoughts and feelings of each day, my twists and turns through those years were ordinary--common to countless others of that generation.

Rather, the tale is about the place that surrounded, that pushed and pulled at kids like me, and the tugs within us that created the experience of growing in that time and place.

And along the way, within the daily commonplace, something remarkable took form.
