My mom lost a nice ring in Wild Cat Creek (?) there in Highland park back in the 40's.

VW does she know the general area? I am getting a machine that is ok to get wet. We can look for it.

I used to wade the creek in highland park to catch crawdads. I remember all the kids doing that when I was young. I don't see them doing it anymore. They must have a rule against it or maybe it's to polluted now. Do you remember the kids train ride in the park? They also had pony rides.........GRiley
