[AGL] Marriage and LA in 69?

[Jon Ford]

No, but it would have been fun to have been there and  have been married to 
a lady with the cool name of "Jewell." In 1969  I had never been to LA. I 
was living on Church Street in San Francisco in a room in a dingy flat, and 
working at the Post Office. Lonely time for me, between girlfriends, 
applying for teaching jobs with no experience, very few responses. Then, 
miraculously, in the summer of 1970, my luck changed and I became a 
middle-class citizen of sorts, but still  unable move to LA because I was 
teathered to my full-time teaching job in Alameda, CA. I got to go  in 1972, 
but by then I was married and went to LA  just to visit my in-laws. So I 
guess I missed out on  the 60s in LA, and never even got to meet you or  
Jewell!
