For people who attended Crawford High School or would have attended if they hadn't
moved -- or just have fond memories of San Diego in the '40s, '50s and '60s.

November 22, 2024

A picture is worth a thousand words.  Christmas advertising comes earlier and earlier.

I'm into the final season of "Madame Secretary" on my big screen TV and was watching an episode involving a dust up in the Middle East when I noticed, out of the corner of my eye, my iMac acting up.  Turns out every time the TV mentioned Syria, Siri jumped to the ready. 

This Facebook photo of Knott's Berry Farm took me way back to the days before Disneyland.  My friend and neighbor Bernard Holt shared the exciting news that his family was going to Knott's Berry Farm.  I told him I'd been, and was less than impressed.  All I saw was a bunch of cows.  Turns out my dad took me to Knox Dairy Farm in South Bay.

Here's a 1962 shot of east-bound 8 approaching 70th Street.  Click HERE for a larger image.

I never get tired of the three aerials of Crawford I've featured in the past.  This one was shot the week Crawford opened in 1957.  Click HERE to see enlargements of all three.  Remember the John Fry Corollary to Murphy's Law -- "In an aerial of your neighborhood, your house will be just out of the picture".


John Goules '72 sent John Muir classroom photos of of him and his late brother George '70.  Click HERE to check them out.

I've just uploaded the latest IOS versions for my iMac and iPhone and set up iPhone Mirroring (don't ask).  Now my SeaMonkey web software won't work.  Hopefully I can figure out a solution.
