makes me feel a kid again — a golden girl body §

housing a mischievous post-adolescent.

She provides the most effective vitamin of all for

My family moved to Bishop Place last year and
Rick introduced himself as the head of our Block
Watch. He is a retired fireman and has never let 2
youngster pass by our street without a safety tip and
a great big hello.

It is a wonderful feeling to know that both Rick
and Rosemary have been keeping an extra eye out
for all children, . oo ot
