Re: Forget Carmen Sandiego. Where's the Green Dophin???
What an awesome post and great surprise to see this. My dad, Marvin Hyman, was the original owner of the Green Dolphin until he sold it in 1981. Everything good you describe was solely because of him.

Hello All, Thanks Arica for the great memory. Does anyone remember the vacant lot to the east of Amphi Shopping Center? I know it was sometimes used for a Rodeo, but I don't know how often, or how

Re: remembering Amphi Shopping Center at 1st / Ft. Lowell
I used to go shopping there at Lucky's. There was a small strip of grass behind the store with a swing set. My younger brother would play there while I shopped. I would even smoke inside the store.
