My Piseco My Life

How much life has changed the place that is referred to as "My Piseco". The place he knew as a kid through those years growing up that we all go through, where life just happened to begin in a small upstate New York town in the least populated county of Hamilton in the heart of the Adirondacks. On that dead end road where so many other kids did the same. Then to be led away from "My Piseco" as an adult and responsibilities that took him to various construction projects that were farther and farther away from this great place, but finally returning and then getting involved with various groups in the town and yes, even the town politics.

Time flies by and the town goes through the motions of being "My Piseco," but the change has happened to this hometown like so many others throughout the Adirondacks and this great nation. Gone was the self-reliant feeling of those days from the 1940s through the 1960s that saw our towns and communities grow up.
