Coulon Sunset
A day of recooping mainly....then a late afternoon movie at the cheap $3.50 dollar movie theater to see 42--the story of Jackie Robinson and his becoming the first African American to break the National League baseball color barrier . He started out at first base on the then Brooklyn Dodgers. I remember the latter days of his career. I also was a young child in Cleveland when they brought Larry Doby and Sachiel Page to the Cleveland Indians of the American league breatking the color barriers there. Quite a lot of history---a lot of of shameful.
After the show--which was excellent---we stopped by nearby Gene Coulon Beach park for a burger and to view the sunset....I was a bit late so the sun had gone down already... Must do another trip there!
