Let's see your old photos

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

Still amazes at how you can look back and see a 25 yo but not forward from a baby and see a 25 yo! You know what I mean, I just can't say it right.

Nice shot, Robin!

Carry, perhps it is a good thing we can't see what we will look in the years to come while we are very young

All are wonderful pictures, really lots of fun to see them

Questa, NM(Zone 5b)

I love this thread!! Wow, it's so fun to see everyone young and in clothing from time gone by. Wheee!!

Here's me and my friend at the beach. I'm probably about 8 or 9 years old. I'm on the right.

Dyane, I shaved my head too!! I was a little older, though. I was 23 and did it again at 27. Each time I kept it that way for over a year. I'll see if I have any photos from then.

Here's me with my grandmother in '88

Thanks Dea! I love the pictures of your dad and the stories behind them.

Nice shots, Harp! Funny - the 5th grade shot looks most like you now!

So you ladies should join me now in shaving your heads!

Frederick, MD(Zone 6a)

uhhhhh, maybe - lemme check with Michael and see what he thinks ;)

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Ha ha - I meant Harper and Dyane!

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

garfunkel has not shaved his head yet!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

He really needs to. He looks like Bozo.

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

I agree, the younger Harper pictures look just like her, whereas in 1988 (with a perm?) it's harder to tell it's her! You're probably right, Maria, 20/20 foresight would be scary!

Victor, I nearly shaved my head in October - I got into a big conversation with the hairdresser, wasn't paying attention, and next thing i knew I was nearly bald. DH told the kids not to say anything about it!

Rehoboth, MA(Zone 5a)

I would not suggest to anyone to shave the hir off their heads, as you get older and older and older it may get less and less like mine has, one of these days if I live that long I will be bald without my say so.

Great shots Sofon, the three of you make a handsome family

Funny, Carrie!

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

my thoughts exactly when i was your early pictures :)

nice set up thanks!!

Thomaston, CT

You still look like your photo when you were 8 or 9 Harper! I've got to look back at the old photos that Mom has, but I'm pretty sure I've changed!

Questa, NM(Zone 5b)

thanks everyone! Victor, I think I'm done shaving my head for now. It was so easy to take care of though... not quite tempting enough.

I guess I'm reverting back to my childhood. Do I get to eat ice cream and go swimming every day for summer?

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

Harper,
Beautiful graduation picture! And I agree, that picture in 5th grade--I knew it was you the moment I saw it.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

I have posted this before on the forum - my great-grandfather's birthday. He is surrounded by his five sons. My grandfather is the one in the shirt and suspenders. Looks like it's right out of the Godfather!

That's a FANTASTIC photo !!

Rehoboth, MA(Zone 5a)

Thanks, she also was a wonderful mother, I remeber when the air raid started to warn us from the bombing I asked her what would she do this minute if we were to die , she said I would just finish what I am doing right now. She was washing dishes.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Thanks, Dea!

Wow - that's something, Maria. She did not want to die with unwashed dishes!

Frederick, MD(Zone 6a)

That sounds like my Grandma Maria. Those pictures are so so good !

Newport News, VA(Zone 11)

Maria, you and your hubby look like a Hollywood couple, very pretty and handsome.

Victor, that is a classic shot. I bet you treasure it. Much more handsome than the Godfather men.That one should be blown up for display.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Thanks, Joyce. I do have it framed.
