Retro Cowpokes

That's me in the middle and my sister on the left in matching cowboy shirts that mom made. The other cowpoke is a neighbor and we are standing in front of dad's '56 Plymouth. We are all decked out for our annual trip downtown to the Calgary Stampede Parade. Yee-haw!

#4 DUDE!

 

Before surfers, skaters and hippies 'Dude' had a different meaning...

 

From The Cowboy Dictionary: A fancy-dressing, would-be cowboy. (Derived from the Scottish word, "dud," meaning "clothes.")

 

Here are some 1960's Dudes!
