Had a bad accident today...

The Monday I was looking forward to threw me for a loop. This morning started off gloomy and we ended up with very little sun all day. Contemplated a run to Alpine to kill the off weather day. Was all prepared for a shopping trip and stopped by to check in with my new land owner buddy, Aaron. He just spent his first night out on his new desert empire in his camper. All the same things that went through my head when I first got here must be clouding his brain right about now.
The sun peeked out a little and I decided that I really didn't need to head up to Alpine today so I came back to the Lab. That's when the accident happened. I ended up falling down memory lane for the rest of the day. I made the mistake of looking in one of the boxes I have in storage. Its was filled with photos from my early NYC days. Here are two photos from the archives - me assisting my friend Doug on a photo shoot in Greece....and a shot of the two 15 year old German girls we met on the trip (they looked even better from the front). Having trouble tonight figuring out how I got from there to here.

  2. Every once in a while it is good to just take a day off and why not go down memory lane if we so desire...

    First time I see a picture of you in new blue jeans. Looks like your longhorn buddy wanted to look at the magazine as well, lol.

    Is your new neighbor Aaron going to be a full timer or is he just down for a visit? Sorry for sounding nosy but I love to hear stories of why people move to the Big Bend Area. Would love to be able to do so myself so I guess you could say I am kind of envious.

  4. Relatively close to where I live there is actually a street called Memory Ln. Spooky, huh?

    I was feeling kinda troubled for ogling the 15 year old girls in the picture, but then I realized that if the other photo is from the same era, I was probably a lot younger than 15 when the photo was taken, so I was actually ogling older women. So I'm off the hook.

    Right?
