Last weekend's Outdoors column by Ernie Cowan is about Butterfly Farms in Encinitas.  Click HERE to read all about it -- and see some more photos.



David Clark '69 shares a photo of himself in Vietnam in the Fall of 1971.  Click HERE to revisit the Colts Who Served In The Military Page and get more details.




This colorful photo of a CocaCola truck was taken in 1966.  (Hint:  The San Diego Zoo was established in 1916).  Click HERE to see photos of the NEW (in 1964) Coca Cola bottling plant at Highway 94 and 47th Street.



Remember the June 17th post with the color photos of the 1953 San Diego State Homecoming Parade on El Cajon Boulevard?  Bob Richardson '61 sent me the photo above at the time, and it slipped through the cracks.  Click HERE to see the photo enlarged, plus a super enlargement of the girl sitting on the wall at the far left.  Bob thinks it's Valerie Ziegenfuss.  He ought to know.  They were childhood neighbors.



Jay Easton '66 submitted this photo.  He's second from the left in the back.  James Guffey was good enough to print his name on his shirt.  Neither of them can remember the names of the other people, the location, or the occasion.  Can you help?



My brother Glen “Skee” Strzelecki ’65 passed away Tuesday after a short illness.  He was surrounded by his wife Piedad, son Glen, grandson Christopher, sister Ann and brother in law Dave Harding.   Skee loved surfing, baseball and his family.  Prayers are accepted in lieu of donations -- Ann Strzelecki Harding ’63
