It’s not often that you meet people who still live in the area they grew up in. Our own Brad P. is one of those. In fact he tells me his grade school principal had my last name. Cars and Coffee on Saturdays has several home growns as well. I’ve had the fortune in the last 6 months to meet another which is Retired Marine General Orlo Steele. The General is leading the effort to bring Grass Valley’s Memorial park and its’ memorials back up to good condition. Memorial park…

After our marriage, we rented a small house in Alhambra.  One day in 1964, due to a detour, Don had…

Something Old – A found treasure by Lanny N. “I found this button (above) while cleaning out one of my drawers. It is from the very early days of the Roamin Angels club. We only had about 20 members and we used to meet at our homes. JIM BEITZ was a member and his home had a pool. As I remember it we had a great time.

These kept saying “I’m driving to New York!!!!” I use this photo as back drop on one of the computers, so I see it frequently. It leads me to the point of this note told in a couple of stories… Story 1 I…
