Recently I've been showing pictures of places I used to live. I've lived in a lot of places. But I've never actually written them down in a kind of list, so I'll do that now - to the best of my ability - to see if I've ever lived on an avenue.
There are no dates & addresses because that would be too much work. I do not remember living on the first two roads but my sister Karin confirmed those were my two residences before my mother left my father.
(Garland, Texas) Daughtery Drive - Rolando Drive - Kingsley Road - Cranford Drive - 5th Street.
Some of those residences were on the same street. For example, when I returned home for the summer after my sophomore year of college, I lived at my sister Pat's - who lived at the time on Rolando.
(Austin, Texas) Elmont Drive - Town Lake Circle - 46th Street - 45th Street - 40th Street - Avenue A!
Look! I only had to go up to 1992! At the end of a devastating break-up, I found myself in a shitty efficiency in an apartment complex on Avenue A.
Here's where I went from there:
(Still in Austin) Depew Avenue! Right after that, I lived from five years on Depew Ave.! How could I forget that?
& what then?
(More Austin) Red River Street - Fairfield Lane - Ridgemont Drive.
(Huntington, West Virginia) Neel Street.
(Lexington, Kentucky) Tulsa Road - Southbend Drive.
(Fort Worth, Texas) Diaz Avenue!
Lookee there! I lived on a road called Diaz Avenue in Fort Worth, Texas! We lived there for just a few months - & there are only three more roads I've lived on since then:
(Still Fort Worth) Bal Lake Drive
(Portland, Oregon) 62nd Avenue?!?
Oh man I swear I didn't know we lived on an avenue here in Portland! But I guess we did - for about six or seven months. Now, alas, we live on plain ol' street.
But wow. From 1992 till around 2002 I lived on an avenue, plus a few months in 2016 & in 2019. That's like one-fifth of my life lived on an avenue. I didn't even think I lived on even one avenue!
Look forward to pictures of these places in the future!
