San Roque Deja Vu

It has been forty years. Forty. Years.

That's a very long time. And as previous posts attest, there have been changes. But other things haven't really changed that much. Or, maybe, they've changed and changed again and changed back. Passing themselves going to where they're coming from, so to speak.

Last night I was driving down Upper State in the dark and I turned on the radio and pressed the Search button. And up came 95.5 KLOS. Still around. Wow. Then, a voice. A familiar voice. Frazier Smith? Yep, doing the "Frazier Smith Pre-Show Show" 

Oh, my. Severe wrenching timelapse whiplash. By way.


I happened to be near SMHS at 4pm, so I invited myself to do a little walkthrough. And found the library open. And this amazing sight, featuring Conference Room Dos, the site of repeated incidents in which, at one time, several high school students got kicked out of the library so often they ended up in the Assistant Principal's office:



Now, tonight, staying in a motel on Upper State. On the old cruising route. No Camaros or Mustangs or Chargers or Cougars or suchlike but still Upper State. And one of the stoplights where we used to drag race...allegedly:
