I'm so old I remember the years the M&M boys were slugging out home runs for the Yankees and Yogi got some too.

I snapshot of my life could be seen by watching ANY episode of " The Goldberg's". I was Barry Goldberg l. The exact lifestyle down to the clothes he wore.

Did I miss the story behind this photo?

Did I miss the story behind this photo?

I didn't include the back story. Picture taken in front of 3104 Lincoln Way, Costa Mesa, California 92626 - May 1968. I was born Oct 27, 1960..so I am an intensely shy 7 year old, and I had a crush on Scotty. My Dad was a huge Trek fan and worked in Aerospace program, McDonnell Douglas/Boeing. Mr Doohan was visiting one of our neighbors. I can remember looking in the trunk of his car while he was retrieving a signed photo. I do not know where the photo ended up. My dad always dressed up as his favorite character, Spock(green skin and ears included). My mom sewed their costumes. She dressed as one of the lady Trekkers in a blue mini, black nylons. They had the belts, recorders, flip communicators, and the badge.

Now we have "athleisure" which means wearing gym clothes everywhere.

I'm so old I remember when kids could amuse themselves for hours with a bag of marbles by drawing a circle in the sand and putting marbles in the center and then trying to shoot them out with their prized shooter marble.

I'm so old I remember when I had a FFA project calf that I was allowed to have in a city back yard. Didn't have a pen. He wore a halter and was staked out in a different place to mow grass everyday.

I'm so old, I have my marbles that I won from 1968 and I'm using them in my chick waterer today.

I'm so old, I hid my orphaned FFA lambs in my big city backyard in 1977. It was okay, my neighborhood was known for its wild side. I had a neighbor who had a monkey and brought Lion cubs home!

I'm so old, when we prank called people, it took forever to rotary dial. Then the operator would call your mother!
