June/July 2085: postcards
Extras, outtakes, and updates from our supporting cast. Many of these photos were also posted on my Tumblr, but Tumblr is chaotic and lacks structure. So for the sake of documentation, and to choose favorites, these were some of the things that happened in the background of other stories in June and July of 1985.

June 2085: graduation day
High school graduating classes of 2085:
Lakeside Heights: Ruby McCullough, Parker Michen
Sunrise Shores: Gloria Garth, Shiloh Morgan
Belated pictures from Ruby's graduation and grad party, because this would have happened in June.
I had once taken these pictures thinking I would do a blog story for it, but it became too big and involved and novel-like, so I decided it was the kind of story that would be better suited to books instead. For reasons. Too complicated, overwhelming and smothering the neighborhood. Too many books to write for one lifetime. Life happening. Need to conserve and funnel and allocate my creative energy. And junk.
But I already took these pictures, so I figured I might as well share some of them here, to mark the occasion of these proud young people at the culmination of their high school years.

April 2085: happy birthday, dear Ruby (spring birthdays)
*** mildly NSFW for one quick boob. When Darla wants her top off, she gets her top off, lol! ***
April, 2085. Ruby McCullough is 18 years old.
The car was painted a shade that Ruby couldn't decide if it was supposed to be brown or green, bringing to mind things like mud, or bugs, or excrement.
"What is this color? It looks like horse shit! How can I drive this while people still have eyes!?!"

February 2085: The Snowflake Ball (Ruby)
February, 2085. Ruby McCullough is 17, Claude is 12. Kevin Pittman is 19. Lily is 12.
"Smile," Barbara said, holding the camera up at her son and his girlfriend.
Claude's grades were ridiculous, and it was a miracle his father was even letting him go to prom. But they knew it would only disappoint Lily if he didn't go, and she looked so lovely. Her parents were lovely, and rich, and had five children in the school district. Barbara knew it never hurt to have powerful connections when her husband going for school board president. Best not disappoint one of their daughters.
Claude and Lily smiled for the camera.
