My teenage years

Oops, forgot to mention in one post, I got saved at age 9, got baptized at age 10. Now on to my teen years. I probably had an occasion typical teen attitude sometimes, but I didn't get into any trouble with drinking, sex or smoking. I went to Washington Jr. High School(which is now used as something else I think) and Duluth Central High School, which is in it's last year. I had gone to a Baptist church and then it closed and I started going to Glad Tidings Assemblies of God(now the River Church), met a lot of great friends there and I had the best youth pastor ever in Rob Dean! Went to youth group there and that also helped keep me stable and not getting into things as well. My funnest times were going to amusement parks and other youth stuff. Hard to believe I've known Chuck Cox and Rob Dean for 35 years now. Joann almost as long but not quite. Graduated from high school in 1980, went into the Army after high school, didn't last long, I just wasn't emotionally there and I got honorable discharged a few months in, then I got a job working at Jenos for a brief time. Packing boxes and other misc. stuff.(pizza). Had a boyfriend while leaving the army but that didn't last long. I was dumped. For the most part my teen years were good. Oh, was briefly part of the youth Bible Quiz team, but it only lasted a short time as a few people dropped out and we didn't have enough to compete in things.
