School Story:
Man, there are so many good memories--I feel blessed to have had so many good friends at MHS--I still keep in touch with many of those friends.
Some events that stick in my mind at this moment:
--Senior Skip Day at Loud Thunder (Lake George). Having canoe wars with half of them tipped over by the end of the day and Mark Moorhouse straddling a pontoon on a paddle boat hanging on for dear life. I don't think swimming was alowed was it Lynn??
--Going to Radar Road in Phil's van with about 18 people piled in.
--Going to the drive in in Phil's van with 18 people hiding under seats, etc. and Phil saying he was the only customer at the ticket booth. I think we split the price of the ticket and spent about a nickel each.
--Cruising down 23rd Avenue about 89 times a weekend night in Dave Anderson's Catalina or "The Olive."
--Going to Dave Anderson's house to pick him up for school functions and raiding the refrigerator completely.
--Riding in Brian's Toyota Corolla pulling over cars with a 1 million candle power flashlight pretending we were cops.
--Several weekends Going to Gretchen's grandma and grandpa's house on the Rock River and floating lazily downstream with a ton of friends and a cooler in one of the tubes.
Now I have a confession to make---I never claimed to have any education in float building. Out of the couple of times that I went down to help with the float, someone asked if anyone could shape a bear head with chicken wire. I said--I'll give it a try. Well-----You can see the results--I am responsible for the pin head bear and, probably, the only time the seniors came in last place for the float contest at the game.
I almost forgot--I kind of remember having hair. Although, I didn't have much even at 18 years old. Hair is definitely overrated.
