I've spent 36 years teaching at Ashtabula County Joint Vocational School (now called A-Tech), the last 8 years substituting there. Along with my husband, JJ, we have been raising our 2 wonderful sons. Both of my boys will be off to college this fall (empty nest!!!). My eldest, Michael, is attending Youngstown State University (yep, that's where I graduated from so long ago) majoring in computer technology and is an Eagle Scout and my youngest, Bryan, will be starting at Pittsburgh Technical Institute this fall majoring in Graphic design. I've enjoyed my travels throughout the United States. There are only 8 states I have not visited yet. It seems strange to not be active in Boy Scouts or marching band boosters any more.
I can't believe the old McDonalds everyone hung out at is gone. Lots of memories of there.
I'll be 16 again this October 27th, (like being able to turn the years around for a while.

Just remembering all the fun times working on the school productions on the stage crew!!!! (My favorite was Camelot!) Remember the Mahan from "Uncle" and calling Mr. Dykins "God".
