Tami, Tim, Danny, Ted and David - fall 1970 – 69 viewsAfter the first Feast we spent with Jerry & Connie & the kids in Big Sandy, we all visited for a few days at our home in Waurika, Oklahoma. Dad had bought a reel-to-reel tape recorder (from Montgomery Ward, of course), and we were messing around recording our voices.

David outside home in Oklahoma, early 1972 – 57 viewsDad cornered me one day after school, right after I got off the bus, to snap this picture in our front yard. You can see dad's shadow as he takes my picture. As you can see, I was totally into the geek squad look even before I left Oklahoma.

Stringin' up the scout guide – 35 viewsTaken at the Philmot Scout Ranch & Explorer Base near Cimarron New Mexico. Our high school Explorer group took a backpacking strip in August of 1973. For the first few days of the 13 day trip, a scout guide accompanied us. To give him a good send off, we strung him up by his boots. (Alan Preston and Harry Steelman (in hat) looking on).

Danny, Al Knauf & David, Baldy Mountain (Sangre de Cristo mountains) in background – 70 viewsTaken during our backpacking trip on the Philmont Scout Ranch & Explorer Base, near Cimarron New Mexico, August 1973. Al Knauf was a great teacher (taught English, Chemistry & other classes at Imperial High School in Big Sandy). His leadership and ability to inspire and motivate made a big impact on me.

Danny, Al Knauf & David - July 22, 2005 – 82 viewsGuess it is obvious that this is not a picture from the 70's, but thought it would be interesting to show Danny, Dr Al Knauf and me 32 years after the good Doc took us to Philmont. This picture was taken July 22, 2005 at the Longhorn Smokehouse restaurant near Big Sandy. Danny was in town for a couple of days, and we ran into Dr Knauf during a department lunch at the Longhorn.
