Maybe I'm too late to the party, can these new pic's be put on a new thread, the new pics start on page 40 and allnthe others are from 2015 at the latest?
I went through all 41 pages and it is a shame most of the pictures from the earlier years have disappeared. For that matter, it is a bigger shame that many of the active members from those earlier years are no longer active.

I'm glad I was able to see a picture of Dutch, of "Dutch's Wicked Backed Beans" fame and Pops.
@daveomak , why couldn't you smile in 10 seconds?
Bearcarver Bearcarver . . .You handsome devil!

Perhaps we can start a more recent post (Maybe Show Yourself II )since technology today enables us to post pictures more easily.

John

Didn't really want to let this thread die so went back and deleted the posts that the pictures had disappeared and that cut it almost in half.
 
I found it very difficult to find pictures of myself... I guess I'm always on the other side of the camera! Lol!
I did manage to find a few pictures.. I included some of my boys Ryder and Knox. They are a big part of me and I speak of them here a lot so y'all should know who they are as well.

I found this one of me and my older brother. I'm on the right. I'm guessing age at 3

Ok, I'll jump in. I am 60+ years old and have been on/around water, boats and fishing all my life. After I retired, I got my captain's license and started guiding. I fish all year long and chances are very good that if I'm not home, I'm fishing. Here are a few...
Wow those are some nice Stripers! You killing me with those pictures. I been on the hunt for a boat for over 6 months. It is just crazy right now. Kids look like having fun.

Thanks Brian. I've caught a few stripers in the 20+ lb. range and have had a 30 lber or so come in my boat at Clarks Hill Lake. I've caught a few redfish in the 40 lb. range, but those have to be released. We have a slot limit on them which is 15"-23". If you ever get to South Carolina and would like to go fishing, shoot me a PM and we'll see if we can set it up.

Yes boats are hard to come by right now and this really isn't the time of the year to be looking for one. Everything is absurdly priced, but keep looking and be ready to act fast, one will pop up.

My granddaughter thinks that every time my boat leaves, she should be on it...:emoji_laughing: I try to take her as much as possible when school is out.

Thanks,

My son taught with Kent Tekulvie at PNC Park for an adult fantasy camp. Kent was impressed with my son and gave it to him which in turn he gave to me. One of my prized possessions.

The picture of me is when I was on a cruse to Alaska. It was amazing how many residents of Alaska and cruse participants recognized that Stargal Star!

Great thread! I think I have the same problem as Sowsage Sowsage Very few solo pics. First two are self explanatory, but the second picture is at my favorite surf spot in San Diego, the Oceanside Pier (even though you can’t see the pier!). It was always the last place Id surf before a deployment and the first when I got back. Also a favorite family hang out.

The last pic is about 20 years ago when I was a slimy pollywog going through the shellback ceremony. My daughter thought it was a good one to share. She has my sense of humor.

Denny,

Willie was a good person as well as a great baseball player. I wear his star proudly.

By the way, I recognize your dog but we still don't know what you look like. . .LOL

I remember those days!!
Willie & Manny & the Gang were hard on Phillies pretty often!!
I remember Tekulvie too, when Richie Ashburn used to say he was so skinny, he had to run around in the shower to get wet.
I think I have some beer cans with the whole Pirates Team on it.
Remember "We Are Family" Theme song?
