Wow, I grew up right down the road from you in La Mirada, basically La Mirada Blvd. and Leffingwell ave, right on the border with Whittier. I used to sell mirrors at the Santa Fe Springs Swap Meet where the old drive in was on Alondra. It's such a small world! The air quality here is way better than it is there! I still visit my step father who lives in La Habra, the next town east of La Mirada, and I can tell ya I don't miss the smog that's visible in the air.

Here is the house I grew up in, 4.8 miles from where you grew up!
