I was born at Drummonds in Ridgecrest in May 1946.
Went all through the school system until I graduated at Burroughs High in 1964.
I have worked as a contract engineer for 34 or 38 years. Aerospace and Automotive.
Currently working in Portland Oregon due to 9-11 layoffs.
I would appreicate it if anyone can get me a line on John and Helen Kessler or let them know I am looking for them and give them my email address.
Best Regards to all who have endured or survived the Valley.

It almost made me home sick. But I live on the Lake of the Ozarks, boating, fishing, and I love it here. I do miss my friends. Ellie

This site is wonderful - it was nice to see 'home.' I've been in Texas for seven years now, and still miss being surrounded by mountains. I love being a city girl but I'd trade the Texas humidity and stink of the chemical factories for a dry heat and clean air any day! I can't wait to show this site to my friends here so I can show them what it truly means to be a California desert rat!

Looking forward to digging through my pic's and my dad's pics from the 60's & 70's and forwarding them to you. Tons of memories as a kid growing up in R/C. From hiking to B Mountain, catching lizards and snakes, killing scorpions, Boy Scout trips, surviving Burroughs, girls, air-shows, sandstorms, shooting bottles and hanging out at night in the middle of the desert with a sky full of stars, riding around on my banana seat bicycle through downtown...on and on.
