Actually, I thought your mother would like a 4x6. But I had to blow up an already low dpi (72), so it won't print well. It doesn't even show up on screen all that well. But a suitable-for-printing 300dpi image would have been too large to post. Oh, well. It was fun. Glad it made you chuckle.  :D

I took the original print and scanned it one day, and it was a small print to begin with. I think it's back in one of the old albums now -- which reminds me how I was thinking the other day how I should scan everything in those old albums that go from the start of the 80s on through the nineties while we were all still using film...

Good idea. Digital pictures don't fade over time. However, backups are crucial. HDs can crash, and CD and DVD discs can eventually deteriorate. I guess nothing is permanent.

Here's the only one I could find here in Roanoke. I left all the rest in Kansas City.

I also scanned the cardboard frame and blew up the Photographer's name and city.

Image


On a roll now, I found my 1961 high school yearbook and scanned one more picture. (Had to deal with dots on printed dots, but the original picture wasn't available.) Needless to say, I don't look like this anymore.

Image


So where is everybody else's picture?

I was born April 21, 1986 at UNMC in Midtown Omaha. My mom temporarily lost her mind and was going to move to KC where I would have been born. I wonder how that would have turned out. :)

My mom moved to Lincoln for awhile and then to Nebraska City and then back to Omaha.

I have lived in about every type of place imaginable from a ranch in the middle of nowhere Nebraska to Los Angeles. I've lived all over Omaha but mostly in the eastern urban parts. North Omaha, South Omaha, Midtown, and Downtown.

Right now I still live in north central Omaha by the Benson neighborhood. I plan on either living in Downtown or Midtown Omaha.

Very nice pictures.. I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. ( Not because of a flashback from the 70's)
