New Year's Eve 2001. Partying it up my senior year of college with my suitemates from my freshman year.
Check out my hair! That is just crazy.

During my senior year in college my friend Cory (Flickr's YELOVET00) and I shared an off campus apartment. One snowy night when I went out to clear my car I saw that he had left me this greeting. That was before he had his iconic yellow corvette. This car was his 1964 TR-4. The photo was taken in December, 1970.

Back when I worked at photolab, I'd develop and scan my own film whenever the manager was out. I was fresh out of film school and broke as hell, but I had a lot of fun.

The 'Fashion Street Extras' accessories consisted of 6 different packs.
A selection of fun and fashionable accessories to add the perfect finishing touches to any of Sindy's outfits.
'College Days' is probably the pack I've used the most. Even Patch has worn the scarf and used the bag for school.

Another self-portrait, this time in an empty corner of a UNT library. I've never taken many self-portraits so these are interesting little windows into the past for me.
Those of you familiar with the intermountain west of the United States, will recognize how towns are often "promoted" by the display of their town's initial.
Many of you will recognize this symbol of Missoula and the University of Montana, as seen from Interstate 90, in western Montana. That's UofM at the base of the mountain.
Every September as classes are about to begin, the incoming freshmen class climbs to the top of Mount Sentinel (notice the switchback trail) and whitewashes the M.

Diane "Blondie" (R), "Bro" (center), and "Chuckles" bottom left.
Chuckles went on to be an Air Force pilot. Diane went on to be even more beautiful, and Bro went on to be an international man of mystery.
And for one-brief-shining-moment, we smiled and were the happiest people in the world.

And that wraps up this little trip down memory lane.

Here I am sneaking up on some deer statues with a knife. 2005 was a more whimsical time. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Another Postapalooza Day!
Image made with a Pentax K1000... which means that yes, it's an old, old photo.

Another that my friend just posted on facebook. Had make-up on to darken my brows .. this was part of the "Björk" photoshoot. This one looks more like me than it does Björk, but Chhavy really got some nice shots... I'm seeing this for the first time in 17 years, really. Seriously? oi.
This was back when it was film and darkrooms and Chhavy was kind enough to lend me an old camera of hers because I couldn't afford one.
College days. I moved in to the master bedroom when Mom moved out of the house in 1988. I looked after the place until it sold.
World Trade Center Towers under construction about 1969
Looking from Battery Park, North Tower is on the left. Bottom of South Tower is obscured by what is now (2021) the Club Quarters Hotel.
I took a fair amount of photos back in the day. I did it mostly with disposable cameras and luck. Good Times and Good Friends #tbt
I found some old negs - very old negs, from my college days, 1973, I think, an outing north of Belleville, Ontario - and decided curiously to scan them: a celluloid trip down Memory Lane.
But these were next-door-neighbours (5A and 6A) on the same strip. I wonder why my old friend Adele ended up so warmly Autumnal, and my window ephemera (some things never change) so coolly grey-going-on-green-toned?*

The Swen Parson House of DeKalb, built in 1899. This is the house where I met Chad.
He was my downstairs neighbor.
We had lots of wild parties at 305 College- all featuring bands, kegs, and ultimately, cops.
There was magic here, one of my favorite places I've ever lived in my life.
I remember when I first spotted the house while walking around DeKalb on a snowy moonlit night in February 1993. It was like a glowing beacon of white in all the bright snow, and perhaps enchanted by spirits. By August it was my address. My room was the coolest, top floor with 2 windows and interesting ceilings, a noisy old radiator, a giant closet cabinet.
In nice seasons we slept on the roof sometimes.
I lived there until August 1994, when Chad and I moved in together, our own apartment on 7th Street. By the next July we were married, and soon en route to Arizona.
Visited a friend who recently went back to school and moved to some student apartments...ah, memories...
When cheap wine tasted the best and life was lived by Ginsberg's dogmas.
