Up On A Roof
“This was taken in 1979 in a Texas beach town. The two on the far right are my parents. Check out my dad’s peach leisure suit! They were visiting the family also pictured here, and took this photo after church with a camera on a tripod. The family dog had access to the roof from an exterior staircase located in the backyard. This dog regularly ventured to the front of the house on the roof to check out what he couldn’t see from the back. To this family, it was a normal, daily occurrence.”

Culture Shock
“My first birthday- I am the one in the center, screaming my lung out, surrounded by family, friends, and one very very confused exchange student who was staying with my aunt.”
