How cool John - so where did you drop it?  Just kidding - hope you got it a long ways east....

I was reading a magazine in the breakroom at work today, and ran into an article on geocaching, which I had never heard of before Geo Johnny got into it.  The article is in the July, 2010 issue of Prevention (we have old magazines in our breakroom).

No, that is not Jackie Moe. That is Carolyn ?? Eddins. She went to another school. Look how tall I was in those days!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You girls outgrew me.

Back in april of this year I attended the funeral of Ms McCord, of course Mary's mother.  Also in attendance was one among numerous lovely ladies, one I had not seen since SOC days, Jackie Moe.  In the Cliff Temple pic is a very blonde fair skin girl on Liz's right.  Is that Jackie?

In that pic, I also like the backdrop depicting a "6-Twelve" store. Whatever could that be a play on?

Ha...look at us............Liz Gerbets and Peaches and me......those other girls went to Adamson and Sunset I guess........I drew those two posters...that is MY drawing of a BEER bottle..oh no...how did I know what one looked like!!????    I think some of the girls glued the pic of Cliff Temple on one of them.  MEMORIES!!

What a great pic of Charlotte. Do I see Peaches and Liz Gerbetz in that photo?

Charlotte you are easily recognized in the phot

Oak Cliff goes wet! Hard to believe after 54 years being dry.

Great article in the News, Phyllis.  Usually the writers just make up things and have an agenda.  This seemed legitimate.  What a different world it was back then.  I remember being told not to tell anyone my parents were divorced.  It made for an interesting childhood.

There's an interesting article in the Metro section of today's Dallas Morning News about the 40th reunion of the Class of 1970 at R. L. Turner HS.  At the serious risk of over-simplification, it contrasts the smiling faces in the yearbook with what several students were actually experiencing at that time.  It reminded me -- among other things -- of an event at our 20th when someone won the prize for oldest child with a 21-year-old child.  As the article said, "[o]fficially, there were no pregnant girls...in 1970 -- only girls who came to class one day and disappeared the next."  That's just one of the issues they cited.  Check it out if you get a chance.  I think virtually everything is accessible at the Dallas Morning News website.

Jack, maybe Indian Springs was named for the citizens of Mumbai???

Wow, John. As a PC person, I can't believe that you went to a place called Indian Springs Shopping Center!!

John, somehow I think this new obsession of yours is going to ultimately end up badly, when you enter a lot,yard, etc. where the owner isn't aware of the game

You couldn't get away with fumbling around the bases of light poles in Dallas, Geo Johnny.  We have too many copper thieves stealing the copper cable out of them.  At least, that's the excuse we're given when reporting that the streetlights are out for miles-long stretches!  And, God knows, you would be taking your life and liberty in your hands by daring to open a pill bottle concealed there. 

Oh, my parents tried, but, it was a lost cause!
