I Used to be Young...

[Sp8ctre]

...and I had Hair! Circa 1979. Headed out to Tucson, AZ with my best friend Wes. I was going to my first assignment in the USAF and he just wanted to get the Hell out of Ohio!

Great trip and fun times...

I'm the tall thin one on the left if you need help.

This was me & the future Mrs. Hack in 1978.

Thanks for sharing; that looks familiar.

I cant remember if I cried,
when I learned I would,
be a bald,
guy.

Not '79, but '80. Just bought my first motorcycle. Wish I was still that skinny, and still had the Norton.

Cool pic....I was 21 in 1979, and in my first real serious gigging band, great times. And thank you for your service, back then I was a communist (though I didn't have a clue)....today I'm completely changed, and it's funny because most of my friends are the same.

I was 19 in that pic by the way. Single with no kids or real responsibility! Had my first kid in December of 1984 at nearly 25. Glad I waited!

Past 4 generations before me are all long lived in my family. All into their 90's.

My grandma will be 96 on Valentines day. She's already lived longer than she wants too...

I'm guessing I have 20-30 more years if I die of natural causes...

 

[Trident]

That a nice long life for sure....

I just wish I could slow er down a lil.....

Ain’t working to well...Lol
