This was the only new car I bought in my entire life.  It was perfect for me. It's a 2003 Dodge Neon. It was automatic and had cruise, my only two requirements.  I got this car when it was two miles old and still had the plastic on the seats.  Just an FYI.  I don't live in or own the travel trailer anymore.  Moved into an apartment and sold it in 2005.

Well, here I am with an old "Face The Jury" photo that I took in 2004.  What did I like about this photo?  It was altered was one thing.  I used Photoshop to delete the background.  Another thing is that furry thing I'm holding.  That was Prowler when she was but a mere kitty cat of three years old.  Cutie, huh?

Yep, I ride a small bike.  Mine is the blue 1990 Honda GL-1500 Goldwing.  Since 2003, it's gone through a few upgrades. It now has a vented windshield and a lot more chrome, and Maxxis Kevlar belted tires.  I'd really like to get the GL-1800 and sort of looking for a good deal on one right now.  Who knows, once the van is paid off.

Here's a photo of my '05 Chrysler Town and Country LX.  Well, it's mine and the credit union's for another few years unless I pay it off faster.  A ride that'll put you to sleep and a place to do it, too if you put an air mattress in the back.  And there's lots of room for it.  An old folks vehicle?  Yep, but if you remember back in the 70s, vans were pretty popular.  Scooby Dooooooo! :-)

Here's a picture of me taken on November 6, 2005 at the flea market at Louisiana and Central in Albuquerque.  Let's see, Bob and I carried pipes on the concession trailer...before the flea market banned them.  Outside we had incense and oils, bandanas and "Durags," and even kid's scooters.  I think we ran the gauntlet out there.  Did we make any money?  Well, not a heck of a lot, but it was fun.

This was taken at Enchanted Trails RV Park up on the West Mesa near Albuquerque.  That area has grown considerably since then.  The shot seen here is no longer possible since American RV and Camping World now reside in what was once a dirt lot right behind me.  I was standing in front of the lil ol' RV that I used to own.   February 5, 2004. 
Of course, there are many newer photos on the site now, but this is one I kind of liked.  It's not every day (or year) that I dress in clothes like these .  Plus, I no longer have that shirt and tie.

The Blizzard of 2006 here in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  Actually, there were two.  This one was taken on Dec 19, 2006 but it wasn't the BIG one!  For Albuquerque to get  a foot and a half of snow is very unusual, to say the least.  And that happened on December 29.  Well, not all in one day; it was over the course of two.  But one day was about 11 1/2 inches.  Chilly outside, too :-)  Here I am standing outside the apartment complex when I lived at Unser and Bridge in just my Christmas sweater to try to keep me warm.  Yup, I was kind of cold.

Here's an old photo, taken in 1978.  Lettie (my first wife) was 21 and I was 23 (it wasn't my birthday, yet).  Notice the glasses, clothing, and hairstyles.  My hair was nearly down to my shoulders, and yes, that was the style those days.  Oh, as to hair?  I had way more of it back then.  A surprise to me was that Lettie actually got ahold of me in January, 2006, I believe, and we chat from time to time.  It's kinda fun to relive some of the old times once in a while.
