Mountain View in the late 1980s. This was the Mountain View High School football team in 1988. Every football player you remember from high school is right there. They were there then, they are there now, and they will still be there forty years from today. Mountain View was suburbia. Rows and rows of single family homes, and El Camino Real lined with liquor stores, motels, car lots, and strip malls. The same stores for miles and miles. Friday nights meant high school football. After dark the parking lots filled with kids who had nowhere else to be, just loitering the way high school kids did then. That was what youth looked like. Nowhere to go. Nothing to do. A whole night in a town that packed it in early. I miss it now because I didn’t know that was the good part.
