I agree. I believe we got three rides in and I could have looped it if the line wasn’t eternal

What was it — 1988? 
Edit: no it’s got to be earlier than that. @Julianne_fki do you know the year Mt St Helens erupted?

No I think it was well before that.
1982 is my guess

I just googled it and will not spoil it for you
But I was able to get close in time because I remember there was an article about it in Weekly Reader and I have one of those brain photos where I can see the classroom I was in and the Weekly Reader itself.
Did you guys have that publication in elementary school??

Congrats! Am I missing how the 62 aligns with this movie?

OK maybe not the FIRST chimp in space as that looks like 1960s LOL

Maybe the chimp was discussed in this edition. This is proper timing. I was in 1st grade in March 1981

I was thinking 1982 like @OBNurseNH. Maybe even earier. Definitely in the 80’s though. I was living in AZ at that time!

PS: If I understand your countdown correctly, you are going to be at Disneyland a few days before me? Leave some breadcrumbs for me to follow…

Yes! I think we will just miss each other. We leave Disneyland om Thursday the 6th. But we will be in Santa Monica and the Channel Islands on the afternoon of the 6th - the 8th. So if you go whale watching on the 7th - I’ll see you there!
