More True Confessions to Come -
hoping the A/C Repair Man arrives tonight...
"Young LadyX Walks on the Wild Side!"
~ Halloween 1951
Keep in mind how small Melbourne, Florida was then.
Grades 1-6 were in one building;7-12 in another;
3rd building housed the Cafeteria, Band Room, storage, and my piano teacher..:))
These served ALL students in the south HALF of Brevard County - halfway to Cocoa and down to the Sebastian River - the beaches, and west to the St. John's River.
We all were good, law abiding students; well known to the police throughout the area.
While we did have a *few* spitballs appear out of nowhere in classrooms, we never had destructive students.
No one really knows whose Bright Idea it was, but it spread like wildfire!!
Passed throughout the high school body was
"Let's take signs from all over town and deposit them over on Melbourne Beach in our woodsy best Parking Spot - photograph them for the Annual - and the next day go retrieve them and put them back where they belong!"
(no mundane toiletpapering, etc. for creative us)
It so happened I was going steady with Patrick, and we almost always took Jerry (no car) and his steady, Maxine, with us on dates.
We cruised around northwest of town by the airport, and I spied an official STOP sign - - "GET THAT!!"
Bit of a tussle getting it pulled up, but the fellas came through...
Taking it to the designated large Parking Spot, it already was heavily littered with business signs, traffic signs - all KINDS OF SIGNS!
Several photographs were taken - police never stopped any of us!
[I of course thought STOP a fitting "comment,"
it being heard often in the Parking Area..:))]
And yes - the next day we took every single one back to its 'home.'
That sounds like a winner to me - I like snacking cold stuff especially when the temperature is high. (and a/c is on the blink.) :(
ROFL!!!!!!!
We cheated even moreso - breakfast for dinner! Blueberry pancakes, bacon and scrapple.......and since hubby didn't need as many blueberries as I set aside for the pancakes, I made some blueberry syrup while I was cooking the bacon and scrapple :) Water, sugar, blueberries, easy as pie !!!!!
