This summer pic under the bridge, I was told that drinkin' lot's of beer maintains healthy hair growth
This probably explains the excessive hair on my back. I really really need to switch to wine.
Grew up in Rialto. Moved to the river in 1968 with my parents. What great life. Cable ski way, yes did a bunch. Friend of my father owned part. I think it opened around 66, what a great time. Don't believe was opened that long. Saw another thread about Danny Churchill, yep skied with him, what a skier, this was before he went to speed. Lived on the river and skied just about year round- started bare footin about 69 when the water was smoooooooth.
Dad used to shit when we burned 80 Gal of gas thru the old jet out footin. Had to run them wide open to get the ride. It was hard to stay in school when the weather called. Friend of mine and I did a double bare foot behind a jet and drug it down until it would not pull anymore. Graduated at Parker High in 71. Yes this guy is old. But I still remember my last class ( after returning from a ski day to finals for High School Graduation. Last class teacher and test said finish and get the f##k out of here. Walked in with tennis shoes makin water noise with tee shirt and swim trucks for the last final.
Valley and Pepper just next to the old Sam Sneed golf course off the 10 fwy.
I think they closed it down around the early or mid 70s
39 huh i grew up in Colton/The Canyon, Grand Terrace, we may know alotta the same people although im older they you, Also graduated from Colton High. Moved away and then came back to settle down, sorta.
It was there in '69 when I got out of the Army...but closed down shortly thereafter...
