for the history of it...

Just a quick note to the kiddos...

Gene Hauf, who is owner of Hauf Auto Supply/Salvage next door to the studio and with whom I have been friends with since we moved to Stillwater, recently told me about how he used to ride his bike as a kid out to the old airport hangers on our land and they would climb up in the rafters and catch the pigeons ... and he lived in Stillwater, I think he said on Ramsey Street! He also said another great source for photos of the old airport would be the old shoe cobbler... who's name escapes me now, but he has passed away and his daughter now lives in his home... they lived across the street from where orville boyer used to live.. Gene said if he remembers right, there are tons of photos of the way it was back then... all I know for now.. this is also to remind me to follow up on this too.. haha... later.. just some FYI stuff...
