These kids live in a town called Piru (pop. 1,200), off highway 126 in Ventura County, California. Piru is an old orange grove town, so a large number of Piruians work for Sunkist.
Chris (pg 76) wants to be a cop when he grows up. His brother Eric (left) just applied to Von‘s (the local supermarket), where he stands to make $6.75/hr. Tim (above) has no interest in getting a job, though his parents work at nearby motels.
There’s nothing to do in Piru. The boys spend their time walking around. Eventually, they’ll get a car and spend their time driving around.
