I finally got some of the early pictures of my dad. Be sure to check out the GQ ad!

    Very nice photos.

    I have some old pics of Mom and Dad–Dad in his Marine uniform, Mom with friends, before she married Dad. I want to put them in one of those scrapbook frames, the type that holds a number of photos.

    Very handsome. And I mean handsome in the “you gotta be kidding me” kind of way. But I’d have been off by at least 10 years if you’d made me guess his age in any of those.

      I know! That’s my dad! But he’s *gorgeous*. We were really happy to find these pictures, and I’m so glad I took the time to take digital photos of them so I now have copies of them.

    I can see you!

    I’d only seen your dad in his older, grayer (thinning hair) years, but from his youthful photos, I see lots of bits of him that came out in your face. Those dimples and that smile, the dark eyes… neat to see!

      Thanks! I can really see my older brother in those pictures as well. There is a strong family resemblance between all of us, I think — my mom and my dad and I.
