THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – FriDAy, FEbrUAry 2, 2024 Page 5 ASKS| FROM PAGE 4 I was having premonition dreams my entire life, so I went to a friend of the family – a spiritual healer – and started writing. I went home that night and I wrote four poems. I never desired to be a writer. It just took off from there. Q: I understand you have an interest in music, too. A: I always had that rock and roll lifestyle. I started going to rock concerts when I was 12. The Allman Brothers was my fi rst concert. I used to go to four to fi ve concerts a week. Q: Do you play a musical instrument? A: I play the harmonica. I’ve been playing for three to four years for John Butcher. I love music. I love the rock and roll lifestyle. They have tried to pay me, but I don’t take anything. I let the band split up the money. I was down in Nashville, writing the lyrics for songs with James Taylor’s bands. A: I love old cars. I collect antique cars, but can’t keep them down here because of the fl ooding. Q: How many cars do you have in your collection and what are they? A: I have fi ve: a ’69 Pontiac Firebird; a ’67 Acadian – it’s A FLOOD CASUALTY: Glenn Bowie stands near the receding waters in the parking lot of Hamilton Elevator Interiors where the truck to his right was damaged. (Saugus Advocate photo by Mark E. Vogler) pretty rare – they only made 370; a ’64 Chevy Nova wagon; a ’65 Plymouth Fury; and a ’65 Chevy C-10 pickup. Q: So, what would you tell your congressmen who have an opportunity to fund the fl oodgate project? A: We’re going to move at some point. I’m not sure how the fl oodgate project would impact us right now. I think something should have been done 30 to 40 years ago. I’ve seen a lot of people come and go over the years. I’m sure there’s a lot of people who are going to move because of the fl ooding. I don’t think a lot of people know about the fl ooding potential when they move in. 8 Norwood St. Everett (617) 387-9810 Open Daily 4:00 PM Closed Sunday Announcing our Classic Specials Dine In Only: * FREE Salad with purchase of Entree, Monday & Tuesdays * Cheese Pizza - Only $10 Catch ALL The Live Sports Action On Our Large Screen TV’s SHOP LOCAL & DROP BY FOR DINNER! www.eight10barandgrille.com SABATINO INSURANCE AGENCY 519 BROADWAY EVERETT, MA 02149 Auto * Home * Boat * Renter * Condo * Life * Multi-Policy Discounts * Commercial 10% Discounts * Registry Service Also Available Sabatino Insurance is proud to welcome the loyal customers of PHONE: (617) 387-7466 FAX: (617) 381-9186 Visit us online at: WWW.SABATINO-INS.COM
