!l i I Senior Kerri Cody frequently takes time out during the sum- mer to kick back and relax in her bedroom with a midday snack. Lakeview and Timberline res- idents definitely thought it was a sizzhng summer. They had the opportunity to experience the sound of sizzhng flames which surrounded their homes on June 26, 1987. The enormous fire began at ap- proximately 4 p.m. Friday after- noon and lasted long into the night. Many families were forced to take pets and valuables and evacuate from their homes. All the entries into the area were blocked off because of heavy smoke and giant flames. Extra firemen and volunteers were called to the scene. Even- tually the fire was brought under control. Extensive damage was done to the land and structures. It was a night that will never be forgotten by Lakeview and Tim- berline residents. Beaches were surely considered a hot spot. Oily bodies sizzled in the sun ' s hot rays, trying to achieve the ultimate tan before the first day of school. It was ex- tremely important for the girls to have golden brown legs before they wore their mini-skirts. And guys. ' They just looked bet- ter with a good tan. The frus- trating thing was that the girls worked desperately to get dark, and the guys seemed to get dark without even going to the beach. Other people, better known as couch potatoes, sat at home the majority of the summer and watched sizzling romances on their favorite soap operas. For- tunately these people were able to relax and gain knowledge of what happened on Days of Our Lives and General Hospital. Unfor- tunately, these people also gained a few unwanted pounds. Quite a few people sizzled away making hamburgers and other greasy foods at local fast food res- taurants. All of the grease may have caused big ugly zits, but money was money! And when the weekend rolled around, money was a necessity. Otherwise with- out it, one found himself in bed snoring, instead of out for a siz- zling night on the town. by Margie Gornik What made your summer sizzle?
