I was just on Face Book checking in to see what is going on and I found a group called, You Know You Grew Up in Azusa If..., and I was laughing out loud. I could tell alot of the people posting on this group were alot younger than I am, but most of the posts I could relate to and they really cracked me up. Particularly references to Ms. Mohjer's English class and Mr. Dickhoff's science class at Foothill. One person wrote, " You knew you grew up in Azusa if you were a Trojan before you wore a Trojan." Lots of references to La Tolteca, Carmen's, Pup n Taco, the Roller Rink, Foothill Center and the Drive In. A few references to the Road Runner, sneaking through the nursery to get to the cemetery, Harry's Berries, the Foothill Dairy buffaloes, affectionately called Buff and Lo by my group of friends, (I think Jim named them that when he worked there) and of course, Aldolinos. And whoa, I also found out that Mr. Rocha is now the mayor, what a trip. Kind of a big loss for the students, he was a great teacher.

Anyway, if you grew up in Azusa this is worth a minute of your time just for the memories and the laughs. If you didn't most it it will not make sense. I haven't joined the group yet, but I just might have to.

Or they forget Happy Jacks Trout Farm or the Ghost Town, the spillway and Canyon City Inn.
