And initially, they were both school teachers. You could be a schoolteacher at that time with just a Junior College education. My dad did not stay in teaching.

Its a stuck pattern i dont see it changing that much. Theres nothing on the twoweek or 16day outlook that we will see any significant pattern change. Some think thats different than the thunderstorms erupting up in the tahoe area this california and towards the northern Sacramento Valley and towards shasta. And that will continue again today. Really a. , a typical july pattern. 50s on the 10th. Fairfield, west southwest at 26. Typical. From what we have seen most mornings Going Forward.
