So now I know what you're doing when you're stuck at your computer hours on end.......I haven't used Google that way in a long time and you've inspired me to take some trips! Thanks
Hey, now that I'm writing Let's Play!, fiddling around online is part of my job. Happy exploring. Have fun out there and if you get lost, just holler and I'll come find you!
You may not have come across this tid-bit but the lion in the picture of the lion farm is or was at the entrance of El Monte High School. I don't know the whole story but I think it had to do with the school being built near or on the former farm property. Since my brother is so much older he went there before we moved to the northern part of El Monte. This is how I attended a different high school. As for the dance hall. I never heard about that one. Geez, I loved roller derby and would have begged to be taken if I'd known. Maybe that's where the skating rink was? I'll have to try and remember to check this out since I spent so many Saturdays at the rink. The picture of the drive-in is awesome. I remember that so well. Sadly it was torn down while I was still living in El Monte. A very sad day. There are other things I remember of El Monte that I wish were still around. But, time marches on. As for snow drifts, we don't have much for being in Wyoming. A few inches and tiny drifts of about 6 inches. Shadow is happy about it. She is out doing her zoomies first thing in the morning !!! Thanks for the memories too !!
LOL! Most dogs LOVE snow, and it's so much fun to watch them zoom around in it! Six-inch drifts ought to be perfect for Shadow. And yes, it's too bad about that drive-in. We went to lots of movies there. Those drive-ins were nice relics from mid-century L.A.
