Kobbe and the Kobbe Kids
I tried to find images that show places where we hung out and lived. I missed finding a lot of things like the movie theater and PX. Must still be on lost negatives, stored away...where?? I loved the evening and astronomy, so there are some night shots that were made with long time exposures of up to 45 minutes. The beach was my escape, so there are plenty of those shots.
As kids, here we are! Photographic proof that we were, but what are we now...? Who are these thin kids!! Some of us are gone...these pictures are still here for us to remember. My best times were the youth activities; our children and their children would be so lucky to have the great programs we were given! Do you remember Contract Bridge classes? Hard to believe so many teenagers, from wide backgrounds, learning to play contract bridge; and doing it on many Saturdays! We used to eat a lot of popcorn and drink gallons of lemonade trying for those points! And then the golf course with its giant land crabs, small greens perched on mounds, but cheap and fun!! I have fond memories of long "cold" water showers, movie premiers, tennis, bowling, go kart races, the plays, the pool, the field trips, and the beach; I wanna go back! The most beautiful girls and cool guys...it was the greatest!
