The first pic is the addition of another building of Rossland Towers across the street from the high school. If you look very closely, you can see the imprint of another 35 mm negative across this picture. You can see the sprocket holes of the film strip.
The picture below comes from our big geography field trip. They had let us off the bus to examine an esker that we were parked on. Eskers make up the terminal moraine country of hills and dales around Oshawa, Peterborough etc. They are left over piles of gravel from the ice age.
I am fond of the picture of Sunnybrook supermarket on a snowy winter night, and I don't know why. Sunnybrook came to town with huge fanfare. It was the first discount supermarket in Oshawa, and its location was on Simcoe Street North near Beatrice Street, almost opposite St. Joseph's School. Sunnybrook created a stir both in the press and with my parents because of the deep discount loss leaders (Bananas @ 10 cents a pound -- such a bargain !!!).
And finally below, we have Brian McNeely in a lighter moment. The thing that I remember about Brian was that he was a heck of a golfer.

The negative of the above picture did not have a gracious trip through the years.
