This book is the requested sequel to the well-received original volume: ""A Baby Boomers History of Guilderland"" published in 2017. New stories and new photographs. In contrast to the first book, this one focuses more on personal memories than geography and landmarks. The first volume had 34 contributors of stories and graphics. The one has over 60! Places we lived, loved, learned, worked and played, taken for granted, as though nothing would ever change. Those days from the 1950's to 1980's, were times of great change, not only in the culture of America, but also as reflected in the town. Like much of history, it didn't last long. In addition, it has a lengthy chapter about The Guilderland Players at Guilderland Central High School.

This book is the last sequel to the well-received books, A Baby Boomers History of Guilderland, and A Baby Boomers History of Guilderland Part II published in 2017 and early 2018. Unlike the first two volumes, this isnÕt organized by sections of town because much of that was covered previously. People who contributed stories, anecdotes and photos (see appendix) are in individual sub-chapters. I have found or been given much new material covering the way it was, the way it is now, the way we were and where we are now.

The town of Guilderland, NY has a long, rich history dating even before its incorporation in 1803. This well documented. For the baby boomer generation however, the town holds a different history, not covered in any textbook. We did not consider it history at the time because we were living in it. Places we lived, loved, learned, worked and played, taken for granted, as though nothing would ever change. Those days from the 1950's to 1980's, were times of great change, not only in the culture of America, but also as reflected in the town. If photos are scarce, memories, stories and anecdotes remain. The photos and stories in this book, have been gathered from many sources. Photos may fade but memories remain intact - for the most part. Please enjoy the walk...

Faded photographs, covered now with lines and creases, tickets torn if half, memories of times and places...The town of Guilderland, NY has a long, rich history dating even before its incorporation in 1803. This well documented. For the baby boomer generation however, the town holds a different history, not covered in any textbook. We did not consider it history at the time because we were living in it. Places we lived, loved, learned, worked and played, taken for granted, as though nothing would ever change. Those days from the 1950's to 1980's, were times of great change, not only in the culture of America, but also as reflected in the town. The town of Guilderland, a mostly rural suburb coupled with the hamlet of Guilderland Center and the village of Altamont, nestled quietly between Albany and Schenectady. McKownville, Westmere, and the eastern part of the hamlet of Guilderland proper, closest to Albany saw the first rise in housing developments. The Fort Hunter area because of its proximity to Rotterdam and Schenectady was similar. Altamont was, and still is, a self-contained village. The town was just beginning to move into full suburban mode. Crowing roosters, farmer's fields, roadside stands, empty fields, streams and woods soon replaced by ice cream shops, diners, bowling alleys, bars, burger joints, housing developments and schools. To coin a phrase, it might have been be called - "Burbrural."Like much of history, it didn't last long. Pictorial evidence is scarce. What little there is resides in old photo albums or shoeboxes. And in this book. The day of digital images from cameras, phones or tablets was decades away. Who gave any thought to snapping a photo of Carvel, Frosty, The Penguin or Dutcher's ice cream? We ate, drank and caroused at Fonda's, Hopper's, Tommy Polito's, Dell's, The Late 'n' Lazy or the Village Drummer. Take photos? - no way. Friends or relatives might stay at the Country Squire Motel, Bailey's Cabins, The Tom Sawyer Motor Inn, the Governors Motor Inn or the M&M Motel. A quick bite to eat was often at the Bumble Bee, Will Roy, Mike's Diner or Walt's Subs. Finer, more expensive fare found at The Altamont Manor, The Bavarian Chalet, The Shadow Box, Howard Johnson or Harry's Beef Bottle and Beer. Lazy summer days were whiled away at McKown's Grove, Tawasentha Park or French's Hollow. We saved money to go to the Altamont Fair in August. We bought our groceries at Spinosa's, Gruelichs, Star Market or the A&P. We filled our tanks and got our oil checked at Joe's Service Station, O'Hanlon's or P.L. Turnpike Yattaw Esso. Other needs satisfied by Robert Hall, Western Auto, Robinson & Hennett Hardware, Ted & Marions Sporting Goods, Candy Kraft or Master Cleaners. **It was the place that we lived, learned, loved, worked and played. And not always in that order. Our parents, part of the "greatest generation," were as varied in their occupations as our grandparents - laborers, farmers, business people, clerks, teachers, house wives, or professionals. Some of us were poor. Some of us were wealthy. Most of us were some place in between.

Adam Barthold is a deeply flawed man haunted by the mysterious Arahm Tuit. He travels from upstate New York to the hills of Ash Fork, Arizona where he hopes to start a new life but instead finds love, danger and watches the world come tumbling down in red ruin, little knowing he has an important part to play in the future of human kind. Although this is an apocalyptic story, you will find NO zombies, alien invaders, government conspiracies, universal plagues or any other such nonsense. It addresses what is a more imminent threat to humankind. Further, it is told from a very limited point of view as experienced by the principal character, Adam Barthold. Unlike some such story lines, the book focuses more on the characters, their flaws, fortitude and family-like relationships. It is both a love story and a story of deep friendships often crossing over racial, age and cultural boundaries. The action scenes are not stereotype Hollywood-hyped depictions either.
