10. Wow, that is amazing.
my daughter is 13 (almost 14). I guess it must be the clothing, you look much more mature at that age than she does now.

Where was that taken?

11. Thanks!
It was taken in Big Sur, Northern California, the summer of 1957...

Funny, I always thought that I looked young for my age...

12. I was sorting through old photos, too
The one thing that really struck me was how Americans, in general, were very slim back at that time. Some of the photos were at airshows, concerts, etc. There were hundreds of people in the pictures and there was hardly a single person who was fat. Now if a person took such a photo there would be hundreds of fat people.

Well, anyway, here I am about 20 years ago after a day at the beach.
