sharon's Story
Hellllooo out there!
Loving it in BC, especially since retiring from teaching! Have tried a little writing in my spare time.
I share my life with a son and daughter, 42 and 29 and a 9 year old grandson. and of course a couple of pets...Whiskers and Frank.
Moved here in 2011 with hopes of doing some squatching....No luck so far! I did meet several bears... one looked alot like Switzer.
Remember when Buckley talked us all into that "Sit-In" as the 3rd floor was being built! Whoa the Sixties and our attempts at passive resistance.
Transistor radios, the twist ( Rick Ballantyne had the stylin' best...Guess what, after dropping out, he went to England with his exceptional voice, ...Expand for more
tried his hand at becoming a star and ended up a criminal lawyer in BC!!!),.
Then there were the Beatles, A&W, the Beach Boys, the student parking lot with GTO's and Dougie's Austin Healy! Jeez, the teachers must have been jealous. Remember the school queen contests and the betting racket Lee somebody and his friends set up! Boy, were those hallways a buzz of up-coming evets and gossip - who screwed who - most of it a combination of fiction and fantasy. And then there was the excitement when we all dicovered the scoop about birth control pills.Do you think anybody really got lucky in the parking lot? They must have!
Were they really the good old days or were they just there?
