ROHR Facility--End of an ERA

Rohr's latest successor, Collins Aerospace, plans to cease manufacturing operations in 2020.  All of the existing facility will be torn down.  The City of Chula Vista is trying to decide whether to turn the property into residential, commercial, industrial or a combination of these.

There will certainly not be a large manufacturing facility there.

That was my guess too, Gail

Did I ever tell about when I was almost given Rusty's old surfboard

What happens in Pasadena stays in Pasadena, right Noel

Around the time of the twenty year reunion

Well George all things must pass

I withdrew my job application

I know everybody in this one, but I cheated

Miss ya Jimmy

Guess who

Our hair was perfect, right Johnny.

So, Bruce, who is that lovely lady (seated)? We traveled in parallel universes during high school; I don't know many of the folks you are talking about ;-D It's okay. You really got around.

Hi Kay:

Since I was thinking I might have worn out my welcome on the 1964 page, I have branched out.

Met some nice and interesting people from years gone by.

That foto is Penny Teaf (twin of Perry Teaf - both class of 1966) and sister of the initimitable Anna Teaf.

I really liked the photo.

And who is this guy? He is hanging on a wall at El Zarape  in San Diego, did not go to Hilltop, maybe Montgomery ?

His lineage may begin here

The answer is blowing in the Wind (heh heh)

I respect what Mr. Rice did for us in the war and thereafter.

He has a wit about him. 

Told me that not only was Rice Canyon named for him, but also Rice Krispies and then changed my grade to a B+, saying no A for you son, you do not work as hard as you should.

I wonder how he has avoided the dread cancer and whether any of us will make it to 98, 99 or 100.

Hi Rosie

​It is said that Zimmerman queried Quetzalcoatl with regard to his famous anthem of 1962

Quetzalcoatl, the Aztec god of wind, air, and learning, wears around his neck the "wind breastplate" a , "the spirally voluted wind jewel" made of a conch shell.ann

Kay:

Here's Anna (HHS 1962). No known relation to Mr. Mowatt.

When asked an opinion of Dylan's song? Rumoured that:

She just grinned and shook his hand, "no" was all she said.

Would it not be something if Stella Gerlein checked in or for that matter Cheryl Chase.

Anyway Mr T. Rice, Rosie, Frank Gregory, and I have all jumped out of an airplane in some fashion.

These I know for sure  and in at least two cases the dread cancer was not avoided, but successfully treated.

Anybody else.

And why am I not working on my many required tasks I have assigned

Lunch break :)

Got a couple faux antique mirrors and a faux cat

May not be obvious but I can still fit into my 1978 Heart of San Diego Marathon T Shirt

Bruce Wilson

Guess who?

I will be surprised if anyone knows this guy, but his family played a significant role in my life.

He did go to to HHS.

The year is 2039. Earth is a radioactive cinder. Betty White and Keith Richards are the only humans to survive the apocalypse.

Keith and I have the same birthday, though he is older

Hi Gail:

I will see what I can find.

Gail,

I recall it was a debating team event where the whole school attended in the gym.  The participants were not told in advance what topic they were going to talk about.  

I remember well that the topic was "Time".  I remember Anna Teaff gave a good speech but cannot remember it.

All I remember was that Fred Longworth started his talk by repeating "tick, tick, tick, tick".  It seemed like he was having trouble thinking of something. But then I recall he made a good speech.

Interesting what we remember and don't remember.  

Bruce Wilson

I knew my old shipbuilding buddy George would likely know, but just in case ... did not want him to be on the spot

I do not recall attending 

Might have been down at Chub's Club that day :)

On second thought Tick Tick is starting to resonate

Did I miss my turmeric today

And Borunda speech too 

And Terry and his maypo

What are we going to be like at 98?

It Will be a new one on my family since 

My mom and her brother (the longest lived) only  made it to 90.

Here's Tom (Mr. Rice) at his CV ceremony three days before 98

Jim Hawes

Saw this at a local antique store! Must be mid-century (50's or early 60's). Narrow belt size!

Bruce Wilson

Did you buy it Jim?

It might have belonged to Finis Jones at one time ... and  just where is Finis' sister these days?

I found out today that Tom Rice is not the only CV 98 year old.  Annie Marston's mom is also 98.
