Four years in high school I successively took electricity, wood shot, metal shop, and auto shop

So what is filling those periods? No one is taking “typing” and there obviously isn’t anything called personal finance

I took typing, only dude in the class. Had woodshop, small motor repair, and FFA. Also had health class one semester, had to get a parents note for watching the hairy Swedish woman giving birth. Also had a cooking class and all of the regular subjects mentioned above. Edit: also took mechanical drawing which Majorly helped me later in life.

I remember this pic. It was taken at a place called Hawley Point on the south rim of Mission Valley that overlooked Jack Murphy Stadium. It was a popular spot in S.D. to party and watch the fireworks shows from. I lived at the top of the road (Stadium Hill) seen in the background at the time.

Oh very cool. I used to live in El Cajon. The only thing I ever attended was a game against the Reds and fireworks while Pink Floyd's Dark Side of The Moon played in 1990
