Danell and Clayton. I forgot how much I hated those socks.

I was thinking hard about what to wish for, but apparently not hard enough.

This is before the weekend started, and right before everyone left. Those were a long two days.

Danell, Brett, and Clayton.

Brett and Clayton.

Handsome, aren't I?

On the front porch in Enumclaw. A rare mixture of brains, physical dominance, and modesty.

This was taken in 1978 at a family reunion. Well, the family reunion I suppose. I'm the one trying to eat his hand.

Times were tough in those days. When food was scarce, we would steal fir cones from the squirrels and eat them. I guess it never occurred to us that we could just eat the squirrels.

Danell and Clayton at Hurricane Ridge. It was another 35 years before I wore sunglasses again. That's not a joke.

Reading my first World Almanac. If you're one of the countless people that have wondered how I became so smart -- this was the beginning of it. How I also became so humble is another story.
