Excellent!	Lived in Durham from when I was born (1945) and lived on Ashe St. back in those days where the neighborhood was small and well kept homes...there was woods all across the back of my home from late 40s to the early 60s when a housing development went in. Remember taking the bus from Angier Avenue to downtown Durham and usually walk to DAP...back in the 50s when a ball was hit into the stands you had to give it back...admission for kids was about 75 cents....and a coke and popcorn was about one dollar or so for both....saw a game at DAP when Clint Courtney hit two homers way over the right field wall against Greensboro. Eddie Neville was a legendary pitcher in the early-mid 50s for the Bulls. Remember going to the Carolina, Center and Rialto theatres for about 50 cents to get into each theater....those were the days....and loved to swim at Long Meadow pool...aah!!!!	Elderly male	10-27-10
