It was the Bremerton Sun, an afternoon paper.

now renamed the kitsap sun.

I started out with a traditional Schwinn and a poncho-like bag that held papers on both the front and the back.

you got to learn which days were going to be light and heavy. We paperboys all hated thanksgiving week with all the inserts.

I saved my money for a decent BMX bike I would race on the weekends, a PK Ripper made by Race Incorporated. (Family discount from Uncle’s Aberdeen Wa bike shop)

best part of the job; the young lady who would greet me at the door in lingerie and have a quick word or two.

worst part; collecting $$ once a month. I felt like that kid in the movie “Better Off Dead”
