Picture yourself in a boat on a river…

Well, it’s Friday.  And I promised some pictures, and here they are.  I couldn’t find the one of the raw silk suit.  Not sure what happened to that one. but some oldies and goodies.

             

This one was taken when I was about 8 years old.  My brother took this one for a photography class.  That was my dad’s old marine corps jacket and some floppy old felt hat we had.  I love this picture.

This was a photo taken of me and my best friend in 5th grade.  Our teacher had a friend that was starting a personal computer company, and wanted pictures of people “using” the computer for the brochure.  I say “using” because this was just a prop, an empty shell.  The specs on this thing was, I think, an 8Mb memory, 9k modem and no hard drive.  Somewhere I have a copy of the original brochure.  You gotta love that shirt I had on.  It was a design that had what looked like playing card backs on it.

And finally, this was a picture also taken by my brother.  This was at the Salt Lake International Airport when I left for my mission.  What a fresh, young innocent face.  Not like the twisted, gnarled and highly suspicious mug I now possess.  This is another of my favorites.  As my daughter says, it’s very “Law and Order” ready.  And those glasses were so hip.  I was quite the little fashion plate.

Sorry this is so short.  I decided I just need to post even if it is puny.  This evening were going over to have dinner with friends.  I’m looking very forward to it.  I’m going to enjoy myself, because we haven’t done anything with friends for a long time.  Have a great weekend, all.  See you bright and early on Monday.
