Flash Back Friday

Flash back Friday is a glimpse into the past courtesy of my grandma's (Thelma's) old journals. Thanks to reader suggestions I will provide a character list so you don't feel so lost. Since some of the people died before I was old enough to really know them I hope my family will comment to straighten it out if I list someone incorrectly.

This week we journey back in time to June 13-18, 1979.
