Nothing like one of those concession stand hamburgers and a bag of Funyons to go along with it.

If you ate at the Carolyn Park concession anytime from '83-'92 it was probably cooked by my mom. She was always making shite and everything was homemade except the fries. They got those from Schwegmann's.

Wanna know the secret to those burgers? She would partially fry them at the house in a cast iron skillet so they wouldn't fall apart then move them to a giant electric roasting pan with water, some pan drippings and lots of onions.

The more you know.

eta: And how could I forget the powder puff games.

You know that Ronnie Lamarque used to live on Queen Ct.?

I thought it was Carolyn Ct? Walt Leger lived over there too. Grew up with his sons.

I'm probably a couple years younger than you.

Well, trying to keep my anonymity, I lived right across the street from Gene Leger, the Rajun Cajun. The guy that Vista park was named after.

I lived on Hermitage back by the canal. Mr. Gene was my first baseball coach.

frick. I lived at the 40 arpent. We used to shimmy across that pipe to the other side and go to the pumping station where the "big" turtles were.

Y'all flooded as much as we did.
