I noticed this today on my walk through town. Where did it come from?

My aunt is Millie Totten, very well known in Wrightwood, I spent many summers with her as her daughter Patti watched over me and taught me many things! They (Bill) Totten owned "The Rock Shop", my mother Marie Stevens and Millie, had an antique/toy store in what used to be Holiday Market on Main St. I love Wrightwood, and miss is very much!

Was that the same Millie that worked at Holiday Foods when the new store was built and owned by Ray?

I remember seeing someone, I think Ray's son, dress up as Millie for halloween and it was a sight to see

Dang - anyway it can be converted back as an indoor pool? I need to do more cardios and I cant think where the nearest indoor pool would be.

[font=Verdana]Wrightwood has certainly changed and gotten a lot more crowed over the years. But it is still home. Although I live off the mountain in Burbank, I hope it won't be too long before I retire and "come back home "permanently". There are a lot of "quality" people living in this community.[/font]

RobertW, I just read your history with WW and was very surprised to see you do not live in WW any longer. You seem to be a huge force behind this website. Have you turned 50 yet? It says November.

So why is the sign still up for the pool?

Because it was the library until recently. When the library sign was taken down, the original sign was still there. I love it.

Ahhh, that makes sense. I was wondering why it was "news" if it had been there all this time -- but now I understand.
