A shot of my sister, Jennifer, and I just after we moved to NM in 1973. In the top right of the photo you can see my dad's old 1970 Mustang Sportsback. Which was sold shortly thereafter. We are sitting in a stream that ran through some people's property up in the Manzanos, I'm thinking around Apple Valley.

This is one of the best pictures I've ever seen of you and Jen. I think it's cool that Gunther and Mary would let the kids jump in a stream and then back in the car for a Sunday drive. Today: you can't get NEAR the stream because of west nile virus. Kids can't dirty their cloths(what good is being a kid if you can't get dirty?)Parents would flip the F... out if you got their car seats wet or dirty, much less bringing along the wet dog! Good job Mary and Gunther, take a dollar out of petty cash!
ReplyDeleteIn all honesty, back in those days, you could've probably drank from that stream. And, remember, this was New Mexico, land of negative humidity. We were actually dry before we go out of the water.
ReplyDeleteNo, Gunther would not have let us in the car if we were wet.
