And r.e. Baker, yes, but I wasn't on his good side!
Truthfully, I tried to avoid him as much as possible, his reputation being what it was, I doubt he knew who I was...luckily! I was not on his good or bad side.
You had to be a member of the "Winthrop Yacht Club" it made life easy in BOS. Shades of Mayor Curley. When the Country Kitchen burned down, it was the beginning of the end for Va. Ave. I would order eggs and country ham and she would bring me eggs and tomatoes..."low salt, honey." At one time there was a drive up window down the street for liquor, when all else was closed... Ahhh.. those were the days!
