I was in an east-facing room in the early 60s and spent a good deal of time looking down at the hilarity on the Traffic Circle.

Blast from the past! I was born in ‘52 and pined the loss of drive-in movie theaters as we “progressed”....

I was born at Long Beach community hospital in 1953. Yet I don’t seem to recall it.
