On this Day June 27,1986

 On this day in 1986: Rose's mom who'd I'd regularly would beat with ease in our arm wrestling contests seemed to acquire superhuman strength during labor. Her hand felt like a death grip with every contraction.

Rose seemed like the only black baby born at St Joseph's Hospital that day. I had no problem picking her out in the nursery.

In the news,riots hit Denver's Five Points neighborhood and the New York Mets were in 1st Place. Within hours of her birth, Rose and I were watching the Mets on TV. I told her "Better get used to this"
And That's the Way It Was June 27 1986
