Carolyn Clark (Armistead)
Occupation: Library Circulation Clerk
Website: www.justsoyouknow.us Marital Status: Married Comments: It cannot possibly have been 30 years since we graduated! I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm not that old yet! (At least not mentally! Sometimes my body says otherwise!) I did teach school for awhile, but when we landed in Oklahoma, the environment just wasn't good for teachers, so I ended up in the library. The library is a great place to work, and I am very proud of the way we serve our community, and the way our community supports us.The website link I have included is to the Pioneer Library System website. That is the system I work for. (I work in the Moore branch.) Send This Person a Message

Occupation: Physical Therapy) Marital Status: Married No. of Children: 2 Comments: Wow, 30 years have gone by. I've been around the world, lived in Las Vegas for 18 years. Moved back to Anaheim when I got married to an old friend from 35 years ago. I feel blessed to have made it this far. My husband has 2 wonderful kids that like to motorcycle ride in the desert. We camp often throughout the winter of course. My step daughter plays softball. All this keeps us busy. I work in Tustin California and have been with this Rehabilitation Corporation for 15 years. Currently going back to school to try something else out for my last decade or two of working. Hope to see many old friends at the reunion. Mickie (Luce) Barnes Send This Person a Message

Occupation: Film & Video Producer ) / Cameraman Website: sideeffects.tv Marital Status: Married No. of Children: 1 Comments: It's funny how 4 years together seems to bond us for life. It's sad to see how many of our fellow classmates have passed. Very sad. It's great to have the girls (complement, as I will always see you as such!) to keep the bond alive - thank you for that. And it's funny as hell to see Conrad's girls living their life on TV! Oh, um, not that I watch... I like to see all the folks popping up now that this site has hit our masses - Silvia looks like all she did was change beaches! Good job girl! At his point I don't know if we'll be there or not as I have an important event the next day. So I'll catch those of you who care up to speed w/ me here, and if I do come, then you won't have to talk to me as you'll know enough. However, that may just put you in the hot seat! How will we even know who to talk to? People look so different. Will we be talking to spouses demanding that we knew them back in the day? I'm scared... I've talked to Jill twice as much via email than I ever had in HS!
So I'm doing my thing up in Tahoe where I've lived for 24 yrs. (the No. Shore). I tend to work out of town on TV sports shows around the US - if I shoot the Olympics this year I won't be at the reunion. Both my wife and I are very into Road Racing bicycles and that tends to be a lot of what I produce / shoot. I love my job - funny, when we were at LAHS, I remember a time when they ran our interests thru a computer and it kicked out a job that matched - mine came back as photographer - I think that thing was running Window .0000001a OS! Never seems like that long ago..... We have a very funny, smart little 6y/o girl that we are both able to spend a lot of time with - it's all good. I still keep in touch with Malcolm McKee, Tim Curren, Brian Meek, Mike Mulcahey, Mike Roybal, Ron Kraintz, Jeff Gould and a few others...
Hope to make it, and I'll see ya - if not, have a great time!

Occupation: Dad) Marital Status: Married No. of Children: 2 Comments: After getting a degree in biochemisty from Cal Poly SLO I spent 20 years in the biotech industry. I left that rat race in '06 to be a stay at home dad to my son Conor (7) and daughter Sofia (4). In my spare time, which is actually less than when I was working, I love to ride and race mountain bikes. With awesome kids and a great wife, Michelle, life is good. Send This Person a Message
