The Amazing Cranes	Detail of the Vincent Thomas Suspension Bridge in Long Beach	The Vincent Thomas Bridge	Our trade imbalance
Our Lifeboat	We all don orange	Our lifeboat activity coordinator (she also belayed at the climbing wall)	Myrna thinks about being underwater
Susan wonders about survival	Myrna looks more optimistic	Then she sees me documenting events	I photograph myself reflected in someone's way cool sunglasses	This activity is almost over, we lighten up
The lighthouse at the Long Beach breakwater	Evening descends on the lighthouse	Palos Verdes Peninsula
More of the Peninsula	And more of PV	OK, bye-bye Los Angeles	The grey and distant shore	We move into a cloud bank, leaving sunset behind
More cloud bank	Sunset from the upper deck	The sun was like a yellow wafer, pasted between the uprights

Group picture, Sanger High rocks!	Getting ready for yet another group picture	Group picture, our class.	Finally we get everyone together; Rich Schroeppel took all the group pictures, so you'll have to imagine him.	This is the best one; you won't believe how much photo editing went into this. Seeing is NOT believing!
