Gone: Church of the Magdalen Teen Town
Church of the Magdalen CYC building which hosted Teen Town in the 60s.
I took this photo shortly before the building was razed.
Google street view shows it standing and then an emptry lot. See it before the images are updated on google by landing on Sutherland and KHW then navigate east.

At Work - The Third Decade
Ah, the mid 80s.
That day Bob C called me a dyke and asked where my bike was, haha. My Yamaha XJ 550 was too big for me with my 29" inseam legs. I looked best on the back of Armin's Harley :)
