It's 1970!
In the South Belt, check out the brand new houses going up on Kirkdale in the background from the Dobie fields! (My apologies to the Most Athletic couple of Dobie 1969-1970, but I had to crop you out. . . except for Bill Aten's fine head of hair.)
And the COMPLETE lack of trees.

and yours truly looked like this
wigs were IN
imagine spending the equivalent of $2700 for a microwave today.
63.50!!! That's over $400 in today's money
TAWNY GOLD is the now color, don'tcha know
Flash forward to 1972
Dobie is getting its first addition added

Another time hop
new addition is complete. And the neighborhood is starting to have visible trees!

The keyword of the year: LEISURE
microwaves are dropping in price quickly
