1976

I'am not really sure if this Picture is From 1976. That is the old Amc Car we had for a very short time. An Ambassador I think it was. I know It was a lemon. But I dont remember what happend to it. In the front of The Car Is our Dog Trixe. She was a Queen of the Alaska Area. type Dog. I know I'am not saying that Right. I thought She had died long before We Had that Car. But I Guess not. That is our House. 245 West D Street. Jacksonville. We will see more Pictures of that as we continue on.
This is what a 16 Year old Daniel looks like. I Had the Jimmy Page Hair going. And the Ciggarrett. I was Cool. Ready to start my life as a Rock Star. It did not matter that I could not sing or Play the Guitar. I just Needed my Break into the Bussiness. Well I moved on pretty Quick. Notice Agine the Brass Wall Lamp behind me. We had two then. I now have them along with lots of Other Brass Lamps in my collection.
Agine just a picture showing the Hill out-side our front Door.
I dont Remember The Name of The Girl in this Picture. I Remember where She lived in Medford. Here We are at The West D St House in Jacksonville. And we are down inside The Creek. Its easy to see what we are up to. This Photo tells alot about me. At 16 Years old in 1976. This is what I wanted to do with the Rest of my life. I was looking forward to getting into the Party type of Life. Not Caring about anything or anyone. Just out to have fun. Party, Feed my Desires. Hiding in a dryed up creek bed so I dont get caught doing what I Knew was Wrong. That is how I wanted my Life to go from this time on. But GOD had a diffrent Idea. Even thought I did not Know HIM in 1976. HE didnt give up on me. HE knew I would be here in 2010 With HIM Now. So HE did not let me Have what I wanted way Back there in the 70's 80's 90's SomeHow HE Knew. I'am so Glad HE cared About Me. And Didnt Give up On Me.
In The Next Three Pictures. You see what I looked like back Then. Dirty. Unkept. Not Caring. I had this Thing about Dirty White T-Shirts. It was all I wore back then. To this day I might wear a white T-shirt during the winter sometimes. But never by its self. And in the last Picture here You see me with my Car in 1976.

And Now my 9th Grade School Picture From what was then Medford-Mid-High Now South-Medford-High. I'am slowly Packing on the Weight. I didnt care. And would stop caring about alot of things as time whent on. (I dont know why this Picture came out so Red.)
