Photos

In Hot Water

“When I was a kid, my mom managed a business called ‘In Hot Water’ where you could go and rent out a hot tub in a private room on an hourly basis. This was the photo they used for the ads. That’s me and my brother in the tub. No idea who the older man is though.”

The Delicates

“I remember very little of my childhood but here I am @ 3 yrs napping in the dryer. I am told that sneaking a nap in the dryer while the clothing was still hot was a tradition of mine…I’m just glad my foot was poking out, notifying everyone NOT to shut the door.”

Nightmare On Sesame Street

“My parents took us to a show that was ‘supposed’ to be Sesame Street-themed. Needless to say, the costumes did not live up to expectations. That is supposed to be Big Bird and Cookie Monster behind me. It looks like characters from a horror film.”

String Theory

“My family would frequently visit my grandmother in Florida. I’m the baby in the stroller int is picture.During these visits my parents loved to bike. Only in the 80s could you allow your infant son to be towed along behind your bike with a string!”

“This is the photo of my grandmother holding me just hours after I was born. Clearly she was enthused about the arrival of her 5th grandchild.”

Parrot Head

“Either I was really persistent or my mom was done being creative with the costumes but I cut 2 eye holes in the hollowed out top of a piñata and walk around the neighborhood as a Parrot Head. 1972.”
