There’s nothing quite like a spring swing.
OK, so this may have been summer, as the shorts sort of say it. But the beautiful simplicity of a plain ol’ spring swing just suits the first day of spring perfectly.

A reprise to warm hearts as the sun comes out and spring is on the horizon …
Spring is coming, folks. The weather is warming up. Sort of. People are shedding coats for sweaters and getting out and about a little more each day.
The sun has been peering brightly, albeit with a sting in the air. Call it classic spring fever. Thoughts of sunny, warm, spring-is-almost-in-the-air antics are racing through minds, especially those of high schoolers.

The sun has made an appearance or three lately, but not today. And people, like cooped-up RFH students are likely stir crazy and ready to make a break for it and ride out of bleak winter blues and into warm sunsets. Incognito or not.

There’s nothing like playing dress-up and drive-by for Halloween at RFH.
In the 1970s, students really got ghostly and festive with it all. Costumes were creative. Though, given the era, it was hard to tell if a few were actually costumes or just the outfit of the day. Ah, but, of course these girls were “disguised” as those ’60s, not ’70s, hippies.

Ahhhhh, the Easter Bunny … the tradition, the joy, the mystery, and, yes, the horror.
There’s a lot more to the symbolically giant fluffy rodent with cartoon eyes in a fixed freaky stare and a head the size of one of the small children he visits on Easter. For instance, his head pops off. It’s also a sweaty death trap. Those are facts, people. I know. I was the Easter Bunny quite a few times.

Spring is in the air — sort of — and it’s just about batter up time at RFH.
So, on the cusp of spring, our Retro Pic of the (George) Day also commemorates the coming of the baseball season — the warm-up, the game and all.
Here’s a shot from the 1970s of some RFHers playing ball. The batter up? Recognize him? How about those teammates on the sideline?
Remember these uniforms?
Thanks, again, to George Day for this and so many other great photos!
Open a new window? Old window? There’s nothing quite like the feeling of busting out of the not-so-hallowed halls of RFH.
Continue reading Retro RFH Spring Bust OutThe way that spring has sprung into summer days and back these days could give a spring fevered kind of person whiplash. But, hey, if the weather fits, you just have to ride it out. And enjoy the ride.
Spring is in the air and all good RFHers are thinking about the game — the baseball game. The sun is out, the birds are chirping and bats are swinging — baseball bats, that is.
