Interviewer: Did you go to Beaverton high-school? Speaker: Yeah, mm-hm. Interviewer: Oh, in town. Speaker: Yeah, uh-huh. Interviewer: What was that like? It was a big change probably. Speaker: Oh yeah, yeah. We had to go there for to write our- We had to go there to write our grade-eight exam.

So mostly your- the- the nights were very short, because you weren't in the house, eh? And by the time you'd g-- do the dishes, it was time for to go to bed.
