Brian... I am too tired tonight. Sorry I think he was around 10 years old.

(I was thinking about the number of years he lived in Marcelline, four I think and the impact it had on him fashioning Main Street after that town. )

Geez... I need to sleep. Good Night

you got them this time.

As for Sound Beach Connecticut, I think I also read that in the Bob Thomas Bio .

I think the info I read is that he finished training in Sound BEach, maybe he started out in Illinois?
