The Good Old Days

Houses I’ve lived In

    I’ve lived in few homes and apartments over the years, first in Evansville up until 1989 when I then moved up to the Indianapolis area. These are a few of the places I’ve lived as rentals and the 3 homes I’ve owned up to my current house where I’ve lived since 1996. Right after I was born my mother purchased this house on Clayton without my father even seeing it. At the time it was only a few years old as you can see in… Read More »Houses I’ve lived In

    My cars

      Since my first car in high school I’ve gone through a few that were special to me and others that just served a function. In my youth I spent a lot of time tinkering and fixing up my vehicles but by the 90’s I just started buying brand new vehicles. Below is a list of the first up to my current vehicles. My first car was a 4 door 1969 Dodge Dart. It was my mothers but she bought another Dodge and gave this to… Read More »My cars

      1970 ~ Ohio River

        In my youth my family liked to camp and for a time we had the opportunity to rent a small beach area (100 ft per lot) on the banks of the Ohio River just upriver from downtown Evansville. Several families chipped in and ended up with 2 lots side by side. No electricity / water, etc, just 200 ft of sandy beach. So it was common on the weekends there was always someone there and many camped overnight. Several people had boats so there was… Read More »1970 ~ Ohio River

        THE Music That Started My Love Of Music

          Those that know me well know I love to listen to music. Always have, always will. Most music today is unlistenable to me but then I feel lucky to have grown up with some of the best music ever written and played. I base what I like around what is known as ‘Progressive Rock’. And 3 albums that helped launch this sound are what I still consider some of the best ever made. I call them the power trio. The year 1969 and Led Zeppelin… Read More »THE Music That Started My Love Of Music

          Photo from the past

            “The Storm Inside Me” My brother Dan was into photography in the early ’70’s. I was his easy model so we often did shots like this one. I cleaned it up a bit and added a ‘dry brush’ effect in Photoshop elements. Turned out pretty good for old a photo found in a box.

            William Henry Harrison High School ~ Class of 77

              Back in the day I carried my high school ID like any nerd would. Gave myself the first number too…. The always fabulous Senior picture for the Yearbook 5 year reunion I think… (find me if you can) 20 year reunion (find be me if you can) Senior yearbook cover (I didn’t have anything to do with this one) I seemed to have kept several of these ‘Booster Tags’ for some reason (never went to games) 5 year (from above) On the way there, wasn’t… Read More »William Henry Harrison High School ~ Class of 77

              Caze Class of ’73

                Class Photo Where Am I? Yearbook Cover So I was recruited by the school art teacher to do the yearbook cover. And there’s a bit of a story behind all of it: I really wasn’t that comfortable with the task at hand and let’s say, wasn’t to inspired on the design part. But Mr Wilson, the art teacher encouraged me to continue and thus the rather lame cougar sitting on the block letters CAZE. I don’t take credit for the ‘Remember Me in ’73’ thing.… Read More »Caze Class of ’73
