So I didn’t get a picture, but I seen a white rubicon like Jeep with a Green RDP sticker on it at Supulveda/ Hawthorne. That’s just something you don’t see everyday around here.
just wondering who that might have been.

I don't think they post on here just on the FB Riverdaves. Unless it is not who I think it is. Camped with her many years ago in Glamis and see her at the upper sandbar every summer.

Work in Torrance as well and have seen it around. I knew NicPaus was a local but didn't think there were that many inmates in the area.... hell once all this CV stuff blows over I'll throw out an invite to the Torrance inmates. My office is near the courthouse and has 3 taps running at all times (currently Mayberry, 805 and Allagash) but don't worry I keep Coors Light in the fridge as well.

The Jeep you are speaking of is actually my wife's car so she would be Mrs. Weasle. We are both born and raised in Torrance. Love the south bay. NicPaus is correct she grew up going to Glamis, we do not get out there much anymore. We are in Parker most of the time when at the river.

I remember going to the The Surprise Store as a wee little boy. The building/sign is still there...not sure if it’s empty or occupied by another business.

Did you play football. Aviation had a good football team that year. We lost to them 21-20 in the CIF quarter finals in my junior year. :mad: I went to Bellflower HS.

Bobby V.No I was on the surf team.Our coach Mike Maury was always trying to get me and my friend Dave F. to get on the swim team .We were faster than most of the guys on the team.Dave actually had the school record for the one lap sprint that stood for many years after we graduated.And yes we did have a motorcross race on the school track with some very fast guys.I think that was around the time the Honda 250 elsinore was kicking ass. One of our guys had one and ripped it up.Cant do that shit anymore>

Lot of older guys from Torrance. I was not the ideal student in HS. But years later I got a referral for a bathroom remodel on backside of the hill. He did not realize who I was until I rode with him to state college to get him a deal on the marble for his shower. He was stoked on the $2200 I saved him buying it on my account. It was my Principal from Torrance. He never mentioned the time I was in handcuffs in his office when he realized who I was. Great times. I ended up doing more work on his house after that.

I could probably walk to @King295 office for a beer...LOL
For some reason I always thought you were friends with my old neighbor Alexander trucking. Worked for Mattel or one of the big toy manufacturers. Back when Dave's Schiada was parked in the driveway 2 doors down from me in 2000.
