Phyl, beautiful Waxwings and Sandhill Cranes.
Clynn, love your morning posts.... Hawaii high schools, at least the one I went to, students were close with their counselors. From 9th to 12th grade you had the same counselor. At the beginning of your Freshman year, the counselor sits down with you and helps guide your plans for the 4 years. I knew I wasn't going to college, we didn't have the money nor was community college available in Hawaii until the late 70's. He helped guide me with choosing the classes that could help me get a job after I graduated. I thought I'd like to be a Secretary or office worker, and the elective classes from 10th to graduation all were chosen with that goal in mind. 3 years typing, 2 Shorthand, 2 Accounting, 2 Bookkeeping, 2 yrs Spanish, etc. I loved English Lit, History... And if I found that I was interested in something else, then we would change a class. I loved my counselor Mr Chung and ended up being one his aides in my Senior year. Our school also had Vocation Tech available for students. In Hawaii during the 60's there was just a small percentage of students who would be able to go on to college. As far as Home Ec. which was required I had one year of that, but I was already doing the cooking and sewing at home. That was enough for me. LOL! ... oh my, thank you for posting SMB's Decorah post and pic of the new Decorah nest for the HM/HD. That's sad, they built another nest. I wonder why
Maybe it wasn't private enough, too busy of an area ....
Tsk, Ditto the Bruhlings as well Robin Brumm are very dedicated. God bless them.
Eagles I hope your mom had a good doctor's appt yesterday. Glad you had a nice day of shopping, lunch and visit with your mom. Today was my late MILs birthday.
Puff, God bless Shorthand teachers.
My school mates and I exchanged notes written in shorthand. Years later, I continued to write minutes or notes to myself in shorthand.
I remember using the 10 Key adding machine.... my mom and I loved "As The World Turns". One of the first Soap Opera shown in Hawaii... {{{Derrick}}}
Lori, beautiful cake for TX Ninja!
Kb, that's funny about the Hen, Rooster and egg. Pecking on her head... love the dog.
{{{Lisa}}} glad you're feeling better .. No Peek Beef Stew.. I guess that means don't take the lid off.
SED Karen and Piper, love your story about your mother and her pet pig.
.. Thanks for sharing the Beef Stew recipe. I'll make it next week... love your school athletic story. I could see that with a couple of guys in my typing class. LOL!
Baz, I searched far and wide for junior!
