American Legion Memorial Stadium

In front of the house is the loop-way around the Rose Garden of Independence Park that existed on the stadium side of the street called "Park Terrace"& "Fox Street" at the corner of "Armory" and one can see autos parked directly in front of our address as well as many-deep in the park itself. It must have been quite a BIG game that day!

If the pressure upon those that be is: We can not afford to spend....We
need to finish what has started rather than start NEW projects and we keep
getting the public more involved this will pan out that it should not be
built.
Because the plot/parking lot at CPCC # 7 and 8 is county land many are
involved with these decisions..
CPCC can not run rough shod with a check book and pen over what is in the
cash-box just because of all the numbers involved.
City involved/CountyInvolved/Vets/Involved/Eliz. Community/CPCC etc.
Chaos....
The public WILL protest if this is clear.
A simple message and we may want to see if the phrase "and vistas" can be
added to the historic proclamation of Veterans Memorial Stadium.
A good idea?
This could clear up a lot for the future.
Keep up your focus and HARD work Nancy--
You are the Best!

Thanks, P. I am still concerned about the parking deck at CPCC, but
the conversations I've had about retrofitting or relocating have not paid
off. My apologies...
And my best wishes,

Rare Peter Gabriel 1982 VHS Video
PLEASE ACCEPT THE QUALITY=RARE VIDEO TAPE
Lay Your Hands On Me
Sat in the corner of the Garden Grill, with plastic flowers
on the window sill
No more miracles, loaves and fishes, been so busy with the
washing of the dishes
Reaction level's much too high - I can do without the stimuli
I'm living way beyond my ways and means, living in the
zone of the in-betweens
I can see the flashes on the frozen ocean, static charge of
the cold emotion
Watched on by the distant eyes - watched on by the silent
hidden spies
But still the warmth flows through me
And I sense you know me well
No luck, no golden chances
No mitigating circumstances now
It's only common sense
There are no accidents around here
I am willing - lay your hands on me
I am ready - lay your hands on me
I believe - lay your hands on me, over me
Working in gardens, thorn-less roses, fat men play with their
garden hoses
Poolside laughter has a cynical bite, sausage speared by the
cocktail satellite
I walk away from from light and sound, down stairways
leading underground
But still the warmth flows through me
And I sense you know me well
It's only common sense
There are no accidents around here
I am willing - lay your hands on me
I am ready - lay your hands on me
I believe - lay your hands on me, over me
over me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me
Lay your hands on me, over me.
Shock the Monkey
Shock the monkey to life
Shock the monkey to life
Cover me when I run
Cover me through the fire
Something knocked me out' the trees
Now I'm on my knees
Cover me, darling please
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know when you're going to shock the monkey
Fox the fox
Rat the rat
You can ape the ape
I know about that
There is one thing you must be sure of
I can't take any more
Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey
Wheels keep turning
Something's burning
Don't like it but I guess I'm learning
Shock! - watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Cover me, when I sleep
Cover me, when I breathe
You throw your pearls before the swine
Make the monkey blind
Cover me, darling please
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey
Too much at stake
Ground beneath me shake
And the news is breaking
Shock! - watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey
Shock the monkey to life.

Pater Gabriel "San Jacinto"

Thick cloud - steam rising - hissing stone on sweat lodge fire
Around me - buffalo robe - sage in bundle - run on skin
Outside - cold air - stand, wait for rising sun
Red paint - eagle feathers - coyote calling - it has begun
Something moving in - I taste it in my mouth and in my heart
It feels like dying - slow - letting go of life
Medicine man lead me up though town - Indian ground -
so far down
Cut up land - each house - a pool - kids wearing water
wings - drink in cool
Follow dry river bed - watch Scout and Guides make
pow-wow signs
Past Geronimo's disco - Sit 'n' Bull steakhouse - white
men dream
A rattle in the old man's sack - look at mountain top -
keep climbing up
Way above us the desert snow - white wind blow
I hold the line - the line of strength that pulls me through
the fear
San Jacinto - I hold the line
San Jacinto - the poison bite and darkness take my sight -
I hold the line
And the tears roll down my swollen cheek - think I'm losing
it - getting weaker
I hold the line - I hold the line
San Jacinto - yellow eagle flies down from the sun -
from the sun
We will walk - on the land
We will breathe - of the air
We will drink - from the stream
We will live - hold the line
