5. I have some very dear memories as I remember the following family members.

Dad's parents.


Mom's parents and the poodle, Gigi.


Aunty and Pity (maternal grandmother's sister and best friend.

[JVS]

8. I love that first picture. It's as though someone said...

"Don't pose for the photo but make sure that your bodies don't seem to be in a natural stance either."

[Kerrytravelers]

13. It was taken by a cousin when they weren't looking.

I love the candid element, like I am peeking into the past, one that isn't changed, cleaned up or posed, but a real moment their their lives.

[Madrone]

Kalamazoo Michigan

[Deja Q]

[YellowRubberDuckie]

10. My dad and my sister.

I know I post this pic all the time, but this represents my family. I miss my sister who died in December of 2000 when she was 8 months pregnant with who was going to be my nephew. And my dad died ten years ago. He was the most loving parent. I'm so sad that I didn't get to know him as an adult.
I miss my grandma too, but I don't have any pictures of her. :shrug:

11. This

[Deja Q]

15. Gas is ~70 cents per gallon in Beijing... (33 cents per liter)

So those numbers up top aren't totally wrong... just geographically and temporally...

[JVS]

17. So the Chinese get cheap gas and we get screwed over!

What a ripoff!

[NewJeffCT]

22. the real horror story is...

that the oil companies in China have had to take losses to keep the gas cheap! We can't have poor ExxonMobil get less of a profit - in their condition they might go under.

[thefool_wa]

23. Wish I could post a pic of my dad.

He's been gone for eleven years, but I seem to be missing him more and more lately.

Anyway, here's something else I miss:

Symbol of my misspent youth.

"I guess I'm just used to sailors
I think they got water on the brain
I think they got more water upstairs
Than they got sugar on a candy cane..."

[Aristus]

28. This stuff:

It was num-ola! :9

[reyd reid reed]

29. What is/was it?

And why do you miss it?

:shrug:

[Aristus]

30. Koogle sandwich spread. From the '70's. It was a kind of flavored

peanut butter.

They had Chocolate, Vanilla and a couple of flavors I don't remember. I loved it; but it only lasted a couple of years.

[reyd reid reed]

31. That's one I don't remember...

I do remember those stick thingies that the astronauts were s'posed to eat. I thought they were nasty. They had 'em in peanut butter and chocolate and malt-flavored, I think.

[Aristus]

34. Breakfast bars?

They were yummy, too. :-)

[reyd reid reed]

38. Noooo...

Damn. I think Carnation did make 'em...they were s'posed to be more like snack sticks, I think. My mom used to put 'em in my lunch box.

Damn...and I can't even find 'em online.

[kay1864]

41. Space Food Sticks!

I remember those!

But in retrospect...

what a product name. Marketing execs would be in a tizzy over that nowadays...

[intheflow]

32. My beloved Ziggy Doodle.

[hyphenate]

35. THIS is what I miss the most from L.A.

[bertha katzenengel]

36. the coffee house I used to work at, and the good times had & friends

I made there. It's got a new owner now, new name, they've remodeled/expanded. Next trip home I'm going to check it out.

Hot Java

37. Fizzies

[reyd reid reed]

40. They made a brief reappearance just a few years ago

My kids had a ball with 'em. Haven't seen them recently, though.

[begin_within]

42. We used to simply put the tablet in our mouth instead of dropping in water

[AspenRose]

39. NoVA is ok, but I'm ready to go home....

[GoddessOfGuinness]

44. The Wye Oak 1550-2002

[Spacemom]

45. My Mom

I wake up every morning wanting to call her. Then I remember she's gone. It's like walking upstairs in the dark and when you take a step after you're reached the top. The stair that isn't there. That's what it feels like in my head. :(

51. There are two empty spots in my heart because they're gone.

[1monster]

54. The springs, summers, and fall where I grew up. (The winters were

brutal in a hundred year old clapboard house with a coal fire furnace in the middle... the area right by the in the floor with an iron grill reigister was hot, everywhere else was cold.)

Playing in the woods, catching minnows in the streams that were on all four sides of the house (torn down now, it was right behind the little creekstone building pictured below). The copperheads that nested in the back yard on occasions were scary, and so was tht moccasin that got into the garage once, too.






vine ripened tomatoes by the bushel sun warmed fresh from the vine


Corn on the cob straight from the field to the stove... you haven't taseted corn until you've tasted it that fresh.


fresh peas


But I don't miss running down the quarter mile driveway in the early morning dark to catch a bus that has come early... especially in the winter when the road was icy from sleet; dancing across the incredibly cold floor in the morning to find my shoes; taking showers or bathing in the unheated bathroom in the winter time; etc...
