The 80's Part 3
The 80’s Part 3 Continued One thing that I find interesting when I write is that quite often I go in a different direction than what I initially intended. I originally intended on just saying why I liked the ’80s culture. Instead, I have gone down an introspective path, talking more about how the 80’s made me the person I am today. There is no reason to change at this point. I ended the last entry in Santa Barbara California and then realized that I was no longer the scared teenager that had so many issues in college. At the end of the 1984 Presidential Campaign, Ronald Reagan went to his ranch, Rancho Del Cielo, to spend an extended vacation. I volunteered to stay for the entire period. That allowed those who had spent a big part of the year away from their family to return home after a couple of weeks. For me, it was like a vacation. I worked about an hour each day and had the rest of the time to myself. Something had changed in me. First, I was older. My looks had changed.
