Wayback Machine - 1969
My great-grandfather and great-grandmother Justus. They were married for over 70 years, and I was fortunate enough to have met them... although I was too young to really remember it...

This photo is so wrong, it's right. I love the shadows, even if mom did cut half of dad's head off....
Way Back Machine - 1960's
Photo by Wilma Blankenship
My dad's Gulf service station, on US Highway 70 in downtown Black Mountain, NC - taken sometime in the early 1960s.
I have posted a photo similar to this one before.. but this one includes more of the car, and some of that cool "Gulf" sign on the roof.

Here is how he spent his workdays.
Some of you will remember that he was also a grill supervisor.
Wayback Machine - October, 1983
EPCOT Center, Florida
Taken with my Kodak Instamatic 100.
Even when I was a kid, I was fascinated by the design and graphics of these structures at EPCOT Center. The logos were incredible... and the futuristic vibe of the park was amazing. That, along with the pavilions of the nations, made visiting here like being at all of the World's Fairs that I was born too late to experience.

Craggy Gardens in North Carolina

Fourteen years later... same summer grass. But rather than taking it easy, I occupied my time rolling down this hill over and over. My grandmother wondered how I didn't make myself sick.
I actually remember these toy cars... I got them on a trip to the beach earlier that spring. A few years later, my cousin Dave and I would set them on fire just to watch them burn. Good times.

This is the Mist Trail heading up to Vernal Falls (317 feet). This is one of the most beautiful trails I have ever been on. The roar is overwhelming, the mist covers everything in a fine spray and makes the gray granite mountainside green. The very best time to visit Yosemite is in May before Memorial Day. You have to put in a permit request for a campsite in January though, so if your thinking of going its too late. ;) (PS. I happen to know the best camping spot in all of Yosemite Valley)
For Way Back Wednesday, taken in May 2003 on a backpacking trip with our good friends the Rudds.

My grandparents always enjoyed getting away into the mountains. Mom has so many fond memories of family outings up into the high country... drives, hikes, and picnics.
This is a photo from one of those perfect summer days... her sister poses by the sign for the South River Picnic Grounds.
My absolute favorite part is my grandfather watching them from the car in the background.. waiting patiently.

You know.... when I first started putting together the Wayback Machine, I told myself that I would stay away from posting photographs of myself as a little kid.
Oh, well.. so much for that. I have already gone back on it many times anyway.
I really like this photograph.
