Photo of the Week
This week we have a photo of a building that was dear to my heart. Some would say, "really", but it was. Balboa High School's wood, metal and auto shop was the place to be. I took all the classes offered there during school hours and then some. I would sign up every summer to work in the wood shop. It had all the tools you needed and free lumber. Good lumber too. I built all kinds of projects like the desk I am sitting at right now, a large and small dresser and others. This experience has led me into a lifetime of wood working up to this day. My wife and I have several projects going on in our garage now and always. I don't even know if the old building is still there. It must have been on the PCC inventory as a shop prior to the high school taking ownership as the entire floor was made of I believe 4 x 4 pieces of wood standing on end and looked old. Balboa High do or die you are the school we love the best....... Long live our Canal Zone memories.
