Hey Ed we have a Bloomfield in NY.

Doug Turnbull's Dad had a huge gun shop,there....

It was the Creekside Gun Shop.

When I worked for a distributor I sold them a pile of guns.

His Dad used to fly his plane down to Middletown, NY on buying trips.

Lots of stories about his Dad, I think he crashed 4 or 5 planes.

I ( moi ) have been to Bloomfield, New York and East ( or West ) Bloomfield....looking at antiques.  I saw Doug Turnbull's shop!!  

And, of course, I've been to Middletown down in the Catskills!  ( My Mom was born in Port Jervis!! )    Light It Up


My Dad, was taken to the hospital in Port Jervis when he had his heart attack.  He is buried up high on a hill in Milford, Pennsylvania.

You can see Dingman's Ferry and Middletown on this map.  My Mom grew up on a farm in Montague, across the river from Milford.

My Mom was raised up here on a farm in the 1930s in a house that her Dad built from the ground up....the house is still there, although it has since been re-modeled....







I rode all over these roads with my parents back in the Fifties....I was last over here in 2008....

The Delaware River   









The Upper Delaware at Narrowsburg, PA




At Milford......this used to be 25 cents to cross the river 



















We used to go out on the Delaware in rowboats.....Later on, way downstream, the Delaware turns into a massive river!!  The river that George Washington crossed.... 

The Delaware is freaking incredible down in Philadelphia!!

I thought the Delaware River was The Mightiest Thing about Philadelphia.  A Magnificent River.  99.5% of the residents didn't think a thing about it.  I thought it was a Freaking Wonder of the World!

The Upper Delaware starts out innocently enough in Southern New York and Northern Pennsylvania, and then turns into a massive river on the way down south!!

The company that I worked for was in Middletown and their name was Roskin Bros. they had branches in Albany, NY and I think in Louisville, KY.

They were a full line distributor carrying every major fishing and hunting line.

We serviced every major customer in the northeast. Every chain store included.
