I know I said I only scan one box of negatives at a time, hence all the 1978 posts recently but I was getting really bored of that box/year so I have moved on to 1988!
That’s right, big hair and leather jacket photos galore!
A few moments that are captured in this batch of scans:
- Do you think Kenny Loggins referred to Bremerton as maybe the “Highway To The Danger Zone”? Or was he just passing through town and decided he “gotta cut loose, footloose”? Okay enough Kenny Loggins song wordplay, apparently he was in concert here…maybe at the Fairgrounds?
- I love the two seemingly random photos only labeled Bremerton High of the two different groups of high schoolers in the cafeteria. One shot of rockers and another of what could be maybe the jocks? I don’t know the context of the images but I love the fashions of each group.
- Poulsbo Teen Center
- Yes even as far back as 1988, chickens crossed roads and got rounded up by animal control.
- Norm Dicks shaking hands.
- An adorable shot of two kids walking around with boxes on their heads.
- Blue Oyster Cult

***I also feel the need to put small plea on this post because of some slightly unscrupulous re-postings – if you are going to share these photos around social media and what not (which is totally fine) PLEASE credit the Kitsap Sun. These are our old but still copyrighted images and it is important to note that they are credited to us. ***

Bunnie Brown’s grave was photographed because she’d been a murder victim in a rather spectacular case the previous year.
