This photo shows a load of innocent looking
fun loving teens, but one night one of "the girl next door" didn't make it home.
I will never forget her.
to Sue
we knew too late
we laughed and giggled and thought we knew it all
no one but us knew how to love and drink and sneak around
all over town
especially none of those adults
a sedan full of bodies just driving to jive at the Jane Todd Inn
10 miles of road to get us there and 10 to get us back
but oh what a road
thrill hills galore
we knew no fear, we knew no tomorrow we didn't know
one night
tomorrow wouldn't come for one
we knew too late.

What a sad story. I sorry for the lost soul...
Sobering thought.
Teenagers think themselves invincible - that's the worry for every parent. Good take on the prompt.
A nice ode to Sue.
Sad story, I had a school mate we lost. He was Most handsom. a rodeo clown and took a summer job as a line man with the Houston Elec co. Hit by lighting. We were all so devastated. Why did God take the beautiful inocent?

sad...this brings up a few memoreis of friends that never made it home...we were immortal back then, at least in our minds...
The invincible qualities of youth. Some of us have had lucky escapes. Others not so lucky.
Great pics!!!!! Have a grand day! Cathy
I am so sorry for the loss of that beautiful young soul. As teens we all thought we were immortals and I am so thankful for those who do survive those years.
Happy birthday to your son-in-law. I hope he treasures his beautiful mother in law in the manner she deserves.
Sending you blessings for a lovely week, Miss Peggy.
