• Retaining wall of concrete test cylinders that my dad and I would build.
• "Andy" our Pekingnese dog dragging his leash home after our walk.
• Dad's PKS (Peter Kiewitt & Sons) truck with a full load of cylinders. On the weekend my Dad and I would go down to the Richmond plant and pick up thrown away concrete cylinders that they would crush test for strength of different concrete composites. My job the rest of the week after school was to pound a screwdriver with a hammer down the seam in the metal mould and split the concrete cylinder out. The I would haul the 25 - 30lb. cylinder up to the back yard. Some cylinders had lava rock in them and were about 10lbs. lighter.
• The present owner of the house said the walls throughout the backyard were an engineering feat!

• I also had to paint those dark brown shakes on the upper floor with a wobbly extension ladder.
• The house was fairly plain but we did a lot of sprucing up. We had to take out a big old cottonwood that was where the cylinder wall is.
• When I got older I moved down into the garage - my sister, Sue, got the other bedroom upstairs.
• Was more freedom downstairs for a growing teenage boy - even though a constant flow of water would run across the garage floor. Dad built a raised wooden platform where my mattress rested on.
• Friends would knock on the garage door or just come in - the squeaky door would wake me up and sometimes my parents upstairs.
Hey Dad!

Band "Hades" at Provo Park, Berkeley. Groups Redwing and Tower of Power were there also.
You can tell he was an aspiring actor. He lived just north of the Chevron station downtown Kensington.
Abriego - retrieving a pinecone. Other dog was "Sport" the dangerous if you didn't know him male shepherd. They had chickens out back and a spider monkey inside the house in a big cage.
Mike Zane hammin' it up with Abriego.
Andy sniffing out intruders in our rock garden.
Dad with Andy in the garden.
Andy at the steps - another one of our works of wonder. When we moved here in 1967 there were wooden walls that were caving in and the next door neighbor, Dr. Malloch - a professor of botany at UCB, would plant irises and other things since the previous owner didn't have a green thumb.
