Title: A Few Oldie's
Post by: guesswho on July 09, 2011, 05:59:44 PM
I'm in Florida visiting my parents.  The first thing I usually do is go look at the old albums.  Here are a few I scanned.  If you have any oldie's you want to share feel free to post'em up.

The first one is when I about cut my tendon into on my right foot on an old Dodge truck.  We didn't have super glue back then so we just used electrical tape and wrapped it real tight. :lol:

Me an Mom after a good day of hunting.  I killed the hog and she killed the deer.

Dad with something he desn't like.  Big, but no where near as big as some we killed.

 ;D Ronnie, love the hair and short shorts. What a stud. I'd pull out  my old stuff, but I think I burnt most of the evidence. I did look cool in my white John Travolta disco suit though. :TooFunny: I actually found a picture of me and my first Turkey, which I didn't know I had. Man, I've aged since then.
This is one of my favorites of the man who schooled me on fishing and hunting, my grandpa Earl. We pretty much lived off the land in those days.

Jay, I'm actually surprised you had film of ANY kind to take pics with. Kinda figured you told stories with cave drawings. ;D

Great pics Ronnie!!

We've been cleaning house, and I stumbled across a few old pics and videos!!
Great time reminiscing about some of the earlier years.

Thanks for letting us join in with the memories.


God Bless,

When our family wasn't hunting, they were farming. For those farmers on here, they might get a kick out of this pic. I'm assuming they are hayen. The man on the tractor on the far left is my great, great, great grandpa with a couple of his boys. Pic from late 1800's.

Here is a picture of my dad and his hunting fishing buddy taken in Yorba Linda Calif. Sam my dads buddy used to take me hunting when I was young, taught me to make sun dried venison jerky and almost any kind of jam you could think of. This is one of two or three photos I have left as most were lost in a fire. Taken before 1942 the year I was born.

Key West.  I still have a couple buddy's down that way but haven't been in several years.  I used to really enjoy it down there back in the day.
