HS Graduation photo 1980. This photo was taken the day after my brother landed himself in the Rhinelander, WI hospital due to motocross racing accident [he took a foot peg in the left ribcage. Came very close to hitting his heart], and a few other busted things. I had to drive the motorhome & trailer all the way [2-3 hrs] Sunday night.

OMGBABYAL! I love the glasses. I think my dad still wears a pair like that. Wink

Here I am:



Keeping my picture a secret, just in case that photo contest comes to pass. (I haven't been on the planet that long, people.)

Nice glasses, Al. Wink

I'm scanner-less, so will have to find a way to scan in my HS pic.

Now I really want to see a picture of TEC. Oh TEC...where are you hiding???

Here is my Sophomore pic. What you can't see in the picture are my black stirrup pants, Doc Martens and paisley scarf tied around my waist. I usually wore half my hair over my face, but my mom threatened to kill me if I did that for the picture. Yes, my hair is black, as were my fingernails, and I wore my makeup light that day.

Nope - no piercings for me, unless you count ears. My sister had her nose and belly button pierced, though, so I do have some in my family. Very Happy I didn't even get my tattoo until 3 years after that photo was taken. Honestly, except for the hair color and copious amounts of eyeliner (which I used to heat up with a lighter in order to get maximum coverage Shocked ), I still feel pretty much the same. Still listen to the same music, still wear the Doc Martens. My 20 year reunion is coming up next year, and I can't believe I am that old.

Hmmmm...interesting thought...

As y'all can see I look vastly different and I also feel/act vastly different. I was painfully shy. Tech school is where I took a big leap...then another giant step when dealing with gluten.

I have to say I'm quite happy with who and what I am [primarily a goofball...Wink]. I'd have to say I couldn't say that about myself back in high school.

Photo, eh? Have to figure out how to upload them or down load them or whatever load them onto this computer first. I've got several hundred in limbo on my camera waiting to be dealt with. I'll work on it next week...

That's great, Manda! I wish my HS grad picture was that good. My gown was YELLOW! I cannot wear yellow. Makes me look like I have the flu.

Great pic Manda! Hey - isn't your mortar supposed to be parallel with the ground? Laughing Razz [just call me Principal Skinner].
