Grossmont College Parking Lot • circa 1965

Santee Before and After says their mother took this photo.  I guess that's Santee in the background.  As "a child of the '50s" I believe I can identify the Year, Make -- and possibly the Model -- of most of the cars pictured.  I've put numbers on the image below, if you want to accept the challenge.  Don't look for #18.  I took a lunch break and got confused.  If it were possible to take this photo today I doubt I could tell you the Model, Year -- or even the make -- of a single vehicle.






In the process of learning out to put numbers on a photo, I pushed a button that may have said "Watercolor". I'm thinking about printing out a copy and going to look for my childhood Crayola set.  I'm pretty sure my pack had 12 or, worse yet, 8 Crayons.  I knew of kids who had the Big Box, but they were from a snooty family that was rumored to have wall-to-wall carpeting.
