True Story
Kidnapped by my mother at the age of 6 to hide out in a small town in eastern South Dakota. I discovered that I had new stepfather who was evidently a well-to-do man with a few restaurants around the state. He was a gambler and soon Mom had to go to work for the competition on the other side of Main Street.
Falling from the 5 bedroom apartment above the Sears catalog store we landed in a cinder block 1 room divided-by-curtain shack in a trailer (caravan) park on the edge of town. Not even a trailer. We looked UP to trailer people! Stepdad disappeared and Mom decided it was safe to come out of hiding and return to Jersey City. Played in my first bar at the age of 14 - very glamorous, on my way! Married a few times and divorced as well. Lived well and lived poorly. Triumphs and tragedies.
