The Pink Flamingo in Arizona

November 11, 2017

A topic on the Next Door Neighborhood site started me searching for something I had written a long time ago about noise from waterskiers in the morning and I stumbled across this article.  I had completely forgotten about it and if memory serves me correctly (forgive me if I’m wrong) I think Dru Schwartz ran into the Author Gary Kramer while we were attending the Houseboat Show in Louisville and started telling him about the party.

I still can’t believe we were that responsible in our 20’s and 30’s (probably the only time of the year we were) but I sure do miss all of the great friends who helped make the parties such a fun and safe time.

Here’s the PDF of the magazine article.

And here’s the PDF of the letter I had written to the Town of La Valle Board in against restricting the hours for waterskiers on Lake Redstone.
