I have to say, if I had benn presented with that photo out of the blue and asked to find anybofy there that I knew, I would have failed to find you!<br /> On the other hand, I find looking at the old yearbooks I'm interested in the changing fashions. Those changes are more striking in the female side of styles than the male. Most of us (males) are in the same suit and tie poses that changed little for many years. Now, any attire goes, down to sloppy jeans, wild hairdos and wierd hats. I just wonder how people in those photos will see themselves looking back some years later!Bob Chesebrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16545764835029744629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743429387466266100.post-10875483874801957232017-02-05T07:33:20.749-08:002017-02-05T07:33:20.749-08:00It's such a surprise to me, Alex.

We didn't have any suitably imposing staircases for our school photographs, and in fact there was no group photo taken, only individual head shots, in which some of us thought it was a good idea to pose wearing pretend glasses. I did so reluctantly just so as not to seem too straightlaced, and I've hated the resulting photo ever since!Jofeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10290597697140624780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743429387466266100.post-30414009672112120112017-02-04T17:44:37.667-08:002017-02-04T17:44:37.667-08:00I almost don't recognize myself in these old p...I almost don't recognize myself in these old photos -- was I really that young, that innocent, that idealistic?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11658880722411505714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743429387466266100.post-8006318779801055812017-02-04T16:29:50.865-08:002017-02-04T16:29:50.865-08:00Oh boy!

I don't know that I'd really want to go back to those days, but I do kind of wish I looked like that young, innocent, soft-skinned person again. :)La Nightingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769079547153094005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743429387466266100.post-24483901990632097252017-02-04T13:07:15.691-08:002017-02-04T13:07:15.691-08:00You're lucky, Sue.
