6. I didn't like how the cars ruined the picture, so I used Lunapic

I opened the image in the Paint app and then I used the select feature to select the cars on either side of the tree. Then I went to Lunapic and changed the car photos into Art Picasso style. I love Lunapic for changing photos. Then I put the edited car photos back onto the image in Paint and saved it.

So you grew up in Austin, so did I. We lived in a big house at 1508 Lunt in Austin until it got too dangerous. I called it the war zone (it went from white to all black and I had to be driven to school and my brothers got beat up I think), and then we moved to Rogers Park. We lived in Austin around late 60s, early 70s.

I moved to Berwyn because lots of apartments and safe place. I know Berwyn was racist in the 60s too and our family used to make fun of Berwyn, as a dopey place to live.

I wanted to add that now I remember why Berwyn was funny, Swengoolie had a bit on the TV show that sang the name Berwyn
