    My wife and I went to Orlando to visit Disney world and see the "Orange Blossom Special" in down town Orlando Fla.
    We passed on seeing a show that was on stage in the opera hall in Orlando and, since most of the tourists were at the stage show, I thought that this was the time, with no body around, I would oblige her by taking a photo in one of them old west studios that she was bugging me to do for several years.
    The photographer asked me how I wanted to look... I said that I wanted to look mean and dangerous. My wife wanted to look like a dance hall girl. This photo was the result..... I really do look like an outlaw, especially since my mustache fit right in to the outlaw era.
    P.S. .... I can't hardly believe that that photo was taken 30 years ago...... my - o - my.

      Hi ChystalShip,
      I wrote our names, where, and when the photo was taken of these two young people. Time passing (along with people) might result in our own family forgetting when these were taken. A lot of photographers take these photos, using a vintage camera of the time. Thank you for your comments.
