Monday, 22 January, 1962, The Frances Hubbard Diaries
Roads icy in the am but we had school. I washed, Gerald went to Cobleskill. Clifton wrote to Marilyn.
Comment: Dad was not much of a letter writer so this is kinda special, I guess...The US president was John F. Kennedy (Democratic). In that special week of January people in US were listening to Peppermint Twist - Part 1 by Joey Dee & the Starliters. In UK The Young Ones by
Cliff Richard was in the top 5 hits. The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone, directed by Jos Quintero, was one of the most viewed movies released in 1962 . And the Chevy Corvair and Corvette were being heavily advertised......
You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
