The baby picture from the 50's with the family tree at the old homestead near Calvert Texas.
Nice. I went to university down the road from Calvert. I used to pass through Calvert quite often while traveling 6.

ZZ Top got it right, 6 was in the sticks. :biggrin:
Prairie View was the destination for us down that same road if we wanted to attend a university in the 60's.

My mom is wearing blue holding me. Far right is my great grandmother (part Tawakoni, Tonkawa, or Waco tribe) next is the grandmother wearing red holding my little sister.

hmmm...

My family lived in Texas during the 50's. [evidence]

So glad, they escaped, before I was born...

ps. Someone wanted to see a recent pic. Pfft! I'd much rather see young Om, than old Om.

ppppppp...pppps...s. (hic!)

New game:

Find the Om.

Nope. His name is George.

[edit: "circa 1980" means this picture is about 25 years old. I'm one of the youngsters. :smile: ]

Bingo!

Quite obvious to me, as I was the only person in the picture with a skull large enough to hold a humongous, helium filled brain.

As in, inert. o0)
That is my boat in the picture, which I didn't buy until 1989.
The image was from 1991.

[edit: Actually, the math works out right, for what I was thinking, and not typing: 2015-1990 = 25 years ago]

I'm trying to be cool next to my little sister while my dad wears a strange shirt that looks like wall paper and a bolo tie.

I was trying to be "The Condor" which apparently was an important animal to the Inca's. My wife was just happy and out of control. She had to beg me for like 5 minutes to stand up on that rock while our guide friend took a picture.

I just found a drawing of that from my older girl's DeviantArt page.

It's stylized on wood. I must do a sitting sometime for a real painting.

Wow. The bluegrass mandolin legend.

There was a time when I tried to teach myself the mandolin, and I had the idea that if switched to drinking Kentucky bourbon or Tennessee whisky that it would somehow aid my mandolin skills. It turns out no. Not one bit. It didn't help at all.
