Barefoot?

He does not like anyone else posting old pictures. Keep 'em coming!

about 20 years ago

I don’t know how “cool” it is, but it’s definitely old. That Remington 700 was brand new. Note the “Flipper” white camo hunting shirt.

No, my dad was transferred to Glasgow AFB, MT a few months before Chennault was closed where we stayed until they closed that base and my dad retired after 23 years of active duty.

Just found this newspaper article in a box I’m unpacking. Not super old but from 2001. Damn I miss playing baseball.

1985, my international ski bum days. First pic my Austria ski pass connected 7 towns, I could ski to all towns on that pass, at the time the largest ski area in Austria.


This is Australia, our Summer, Perisher Valley Ski Resort, I was ski lifty in the day, bartender at night.

My mom found the target from the first year I hunted with a rifle, along with the first deer I ever shot that same year. My grandmother always took a Polaroid picture of all the deer I had shot up until she passed.

1972, Christmas BB guns and standing in front of one of Dad's many VW campers. My younger brother on the right.

I wonder how much those VW campers would be worth today, I thing they are highly sought after.

Not as old but I got big fish one. Probably 12 years ago. Im gonna have to visit mom and dad now and did though the old photo album. One year for fathers day my mom put together a photo album of all the fishing and hunting pictures she had from dad's childhood and all of the ones with my brother and I. I have only seen my old man shed a tear one time and it was when he opened that book. We have spent hours looking at all the pictures. My son loves to look too.

Me cliff jumping in Hawaii...just a cool pic.


Riding a horse next to my grandfather's tractor. It sat for many years, but we got it rebuilt and running strong and I use it now at the ranch.


!st buck in 1991.

A lot. I think the one in the picture was around a 67 model. Before that one he had an orange/black van that had the full sunroof. After the white one above he had a 1974 he bought new in 75 and keep for 14 years. He sold it and got a newer, water-cooled one (81 model) but never like it like the old Westfalia one he had (the 74). It looked just like this one:

Okay maybe the original pic I posted might not have been me, Dang Bill you are just to smart

Here are a few that very well could be me

Cannot imagine which one is me This picture is with my Grandpa Jim Hodges, use to own the Hodges grocery stores in Oak Cliff. My youngster brother and sister were not born yet, yes there were 9 kids.



I always loved this picture with my Grandma Lorrraine Hodges.
