My 3rd grade teacher at Lincoln Park was Mrs. Emig.  She was the coolest teacher.  I learned alot in her class.   One of my funniest memories was of her moving her wig around her head, as it itched so bad.   We all thought it was so funny.     We used to have contests in class with our work which was fun.  I was glad I didn't get Mrs. Aardema, as I heard she was a tough teacher.    Angela Balcom, Mike Keith, Kristen Vogas, Eric Anderson, and Bill Daugherty were my buddies this year.       I hung out once in a while with Julie Fitzpatrick, Amy Heckle, Lisa Walters, and Cathy Ayers.

Summer 1983: Ohio

This summer, my Mom and Dad drove me to Ohio to see Sea World, Cedar Point, and Lion Country Safari. They were all fun places to go. Again, I don’t remember a lot about the trip, except feeding the animals from the car at Lion Country Safari. I was always scared of animals, so feeding them out of our car was a bit unnerving for me, but still a good experience.
