My Home Growing Up in Bel Air

March 21st, 2009 Permalink

Try to imagine living in a car like this with your alcoholic gun-slinging dad and chain-smoking mom. We mostly slept in national parks and other forests. Good times.

It’s an old family inside joke, When asked where we were from, we would say, Bel Air. It sounded cool, or at least normal. And it was partially true – because we lived IN a 1956 Chevy Bel Air coupe. Yeah, those were the days. We were homeless a lot….

We were homeless - We lived in Bel Air ..Chevy, that is.

We lived in Bel Air ..Chevy, that is.

I was a kid at the time and I didn’t exactly realize that this wasn’t normal. I’ve had an interesting life, anyway. I just thought I’d share this…
