It’s almost Comic Con time again.


Another meme, but it caught my fancy. Tell us about your SENIOR year of high school! The longer ago it was, the more fun the answers will be!!!
The year was: Class of 60 but should have been 59. 1. Did you know your spouse/partner? Neither, I met George in my own living room.
2. Did you car pool to school? I transferred to Boyden’s from Chula Vista Senior High my last year in HS. Boyden’s was Downtown San Diego, and sometimes I rode in with friends, and sometimes I rode the bus.
3. What kind of car did you did have? None until I inherited my Grandfather’s 57 Chevy in 1961.
