LOOK WHAT I FOUND!

I was looking for something else, when I stumbled upon an old video.  As best I can figure, it was taken around 1982-83.  Frankly, the quality is pretty poor, and so the pics I pulled from it are of equally poor quality.

Now!  A question for you.  Look at the first three photos, and see if you can tell where we are.  The third one is certainly a dead giveaway.











Where are we?

That's right!  Yosemite National Park.


In the fourth and fifth, the woman is Amalie, my late wife.  But who is the kid?  He sure has a happy, buck tooth grin in the sixth.















Finally, this guy is trying to get out the door in the seventh.






And there I am, recognizable to those of you who have met me.  But I'm about three inches shorter now.




Yeah, the youngster is Cliff, at about age 11 or 12.  Just for the record, Amalie convinced some 
agency in Santa Clara County to pay to have Cliff’s teeth straightened.  Take a look.
