Vacation

The Fall Guy

“My son and I went on a white water rafting excursion this summer. Clearly I was a bit nervous about going over the 15 foot water fall. I didn’t realize how terrified I looked until this photo was posted by the rafting company back at the store.”

That Guy

“During the summer of 1989, my BFF and I were staying on the beach with her parents. We were both 16. We spent the morning in the hotel’s pool, where this older man kept watching us and grinning. Later that afternoon, we were dressed and ready to go out, but first we stopped at the Tiki Bar near the pool to take some pics of each other in our totally 80s outfits (yes, I realize my outfit and hair here could absolutely stand alone in their awkwardness, but I digress). Wouldn’t you know, the same older man showed up and stood behind me, still grinning, while my BFF took my picture. I don’t know if he was being truly creepy, or if he was just an odd old guy who got a kick out of the two teenyboppers at the pool and all the giggling we no doubt did, but it sure made for an awkward photo!”

Cult Of Personality

“When I was about 5 (I’m 40 now) my parents thought it would be fun to take some weird pictures on a camping trip to send to their friends and family.  Apparently, we frightened the park ranger. The end result is a pretty fantastic family portrait.  I can’t decide if we look more like the missing three from Fleetwood Mac or the leaders of a cult.”

When Deer Attack

“A family road trip through Jasper National Park, circa 1981, a fantastic photo opportunity arises. Several deer are grazing at the side of the road. There are many motorists who have also stopped to embrace the opportunity. My mother, little sister and I approach a deer and as my father sets up the shot with a 3-2-1 countdown on his state of the art manual camera, it appears the deer has an ulterior motive. My toddler sister gets the worst of it and we are caught off guard and shocked!  After the photo was taken my father put his camera down and chased the deer until he literally kicked it in its malicious deer butt. No more than a bruised chin to the resilient toddler but to this day, my lil sister doesn’t think it’s as funny as the rest of us.”

Bear Hug

“My father took this of me in 1968 in the parking lot of Lollipop Farm, a petting zoo in Henrietta, NY.  Apparently, they just had a grizzly bear head lying around for kids to play with.  I probably had bear brains in my hair when I too, that thing off.”
