Legacy Writing 365:21

I’ve spent hours each day for the past few days looking at old photos, fitting them into the archives, and ordering prints of some of the thousands of photos on my computer. I’m combining these with other items in my scrapbooks. I’m suffering photo nostalgia overload!

I went to the shelves and randomly pulled an older binder and opened it to a page, vowing that no matter what it was, I’d use it for this entry. And look: SHINY!

In 2000, I went to San Diego for our friend Steve C’s big birthday party thrown by his friend Dale. On the day of the party, Steve had to run some errands, so Jim and Bill, who’d come down from Long Beach, took me to lunch and then to La Jolla for shopping. On our way back to Steve’s, we saw this SDSU rugby team raising money via a car wash. Of course Jim needed the dust of La Jolla off his car. Plus we wanted to help these young men out. We’re GIVERS! Afterward, we picked up Steve and drove back by. It was his birthday, after all.

  1. oh….I remember this like it was yesterday! How funny was that to see the guys washing cars and make that quick U-turn…. “ohhh…. MY car needs to be washed!!” (heh heh)
    SHINY!

    1. I have more photos, you know, and probably if I really embiggened a “before” shot of your car, I could find some dirt. (Because I’m totally lying about La Jolla; you won’t find dust there!)
