Let's see the past
One of the things about moving back to a small town that you left 30 years ago is seeing how people turned out that you knew as a kid. One such incident happened last week when I was cleaning for a young couple and the guy looked familiar, but was probably 40 years younger than me.
The entire time, I kept trying to place the face. I didn't want to come out and ask him in case it was from the State Penitentiary (happens a lot in restaurants), so I just kept working. Then I saw his family pictures...I used to baby-sit this guy as his Mother and mine were best friends for awhile.
I ended up getting a photo from my Mother of this kid when he was about 4 years old. I attached it to his invoice and said hello. The look on his face was of absolute confusion like the audience at a David Copperfield show.
Then I thought, wouldn't it be interesting to see the baby pictures of the board members? Not many of us like to post our current photo and some even avoid listing their locations in the bio, but how about seeing the past? You just might get a chuckle out of seeing yourself as a kid and realizing just how much you did change....or maybe you didn't.
This is me and my brothers before we took the ferry out to Block Island....can you figure out which is me?

Re: Let's see the past
I am on the right as you look at it. To be fair, my oldest brother on the left and I ended up looking quite a bit alike....don't know how to explain the one in the middle.
