I have been been doing substitute teaching (elementary grades)in the Garden Grove Unified School District since retiring in '99. Enough is enough! This is the last year. Husband Peter and I have property at Outdoor Resort of Palm Springs where we can be found most weekends during the fall and winter. I play golf every chance I get--which is daily if I can arrange it. I love golf! We're looking forward to a cruise to Acapulco in Novenber on the Norwegian Star. It's especially exciting because we got an upgrade from a standard outside room to a penthouse--which comes with a butler and concierge!We'll both be so spoiled!

Where has the time gone. It seems like yesterday that I graduated. I only graduated due to my Spanish teacher saying that it was easier to give me a C than have me back for another year. Who knew that the "stuff" we had to learn would be so important to the rest of our lives. 50th reunion, how can that be? I still have books checked out from the library. I never finished serving detention. Is this the Twilight Zone? Lots of great memories. May God bless you all for the memories.
