Under the Dome

When I was a teenager in the mid-'60s, my friends and I went to a very popular teen nightclub in San Diego called the Cinnamon Cinder. It was on El Cajon Boulevard, I think, not far from San Diego State. (It's long-long-long gone now.) We saw BIG acts live onstage -- Sonny & Cher, The Beach Boys, etc. -- and danced the night away, perfectly content to sip on Coca Cola and snack on burgers and fries. We felt like junior adults and our parents were fine with it. Granted, it was a different time and a different culture, but I just wanted to share a little walk down memory lane.
