Website development, not something I've had any training in, this product is superb to work with. A great find and a perfect way to provide a permanent "Home" for AHS70 Alumni. Still learning a great deal about the functionality of the Website, it can do amazing things, much of which requires a lot of reading and ... wrapping your mind around. HTML code is ... tricky.. and not something I just "get" .. Fun Though, ... learning new stuff!

I remain a very ACTIVE Civil Rights Activist. In 1965 - what I saw happening in our Country astounded me. It sadly, continues. I am an Un-Equal Citizen. I am Denied Civil Access To Civil Rights. 2010.

Currently serving on our HOA Board of Directors, year 3 began at the end of March, thus far, a great experience. Year 1, Treasurer, Year 2, President, and now Vice President, the "cruise job." Fortunately, our Association (500 Homes), is in good order and while we do have our challenges, the work is always moving forward.

It's great to look back at the Pleasanton years - many fun years with so many good people. Appreciating all of it, and Amador High was a pretty darn good school. Major Fun times .. and of course, the tough times, The Teen Years are ... an interesting phase of the "early years."

OK.. A Few Stories. TP'ing Virginia Patten's House (My Neighbor and I still love her) - one of the best Teachers ever! Mrs Casella - 6th grade - you too! Hay Stack Parties - How did we EVER get away with those? I Still Ponder Our Crazy Hay Stack Parites? Driving The Hill Roads for HOURS - Jim Duncan, Scott Hackett ..... Swimming and Diving in The Pitts ... Sneaking out into Bonde's Lands with tons of friends and neighbors over the years .. even After HS .. !

Leaving High School for 2 months and moving to Tahoe - and coming back at the end of March 70.. long story .. and coming back was great - especially ditching PE after the Lap ......! NO Baseball for me - ! (Coach V wouldn't let me back on the Swim Team, had to do Spring PE - well, but for skipping out after the lap, only got caught once).

I can't throw a BASEBALL even today. I can still Swim and did swim in the 1998 Gay Olympics in Amsterdam with Team Dallas Aquatics. (And hold two Top Ten US Masters Swim Records from the event). Who cares about a baseball! :-)

Dotty Davis was amazing! Being the Business Editor of our Senior Yearbook, an honor.

Getting Kicked Out of "OTTO's" class (again) for wearing my shirt out - after the rules -CHANGED- Mr Connolly was a friend, thank goodness!

Billie Roach - Neighbor and Friend - We had a fabulous Slumber Party in around 1973 - at Burton's Truckee Place - with Gladys (Rich's Mom) - oh did Billie let me know how much "They" Knew.. laughed and laughed! P-Town - Amador .. What lucky people we all are! Yes, we had our tough times, .. yes we did. We also had Pleasanton, Dublin, and Amador! And Still Do!
