Barb Duran hello back!
Donna and Georgia (Cook), do you remember me, I hung with Debbie (that is your sis too) in grade school and jr. high...didn't she have to go to Lawndale...some hollyglen kids had to split at 138th...and go to Lawndale.
Petey that picture was at two-six? Were they building that lifeguard building or was that the house on corner???
Where is Mark Talbert..his name just popped into my head??? I got busted in Pam Cleetons big green car with 7 guys, Pam and I were the only gals. Talbert went to jail, with Pam and I. Tony Jaqua was with us and I think Jeff Bottoms, and some others..Oh, that was fun..right.
Thanks CT for jarring my memories..
