Teddy: I am doing genealogy and I am in the Highlands. I don't remember going to Bowman Field until the mid 60's. I had a friend that lived on Winston which is close to the airport. One of my fun memories was going to get a slushie and sitting there watching the airplanes come in.I went to Assumption, we would go after school- it was much better than homework.
