    3. By George, er ah Bob, you're memory is close enough. If you lived on Maple Avenue and if your father drove down McKoon Avenue and turned left on College Avenue and crossed the tracks and across Highland Avenue, on your right would have been the Vanadium plant. Since I went to North Junior High School in the 1940s instead of South Junior, I didn't have your father as a teacher. Nonetheless, those days are days of precious memories. vee ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 02, 2004 11:02 PM Subject: [FOLKS] Re: NYNIAGAR-FOLKS-D Digest V04 #21 > Vee > > I lived on Maple Avenue in Niagara Falls from 1933 to 1944.
