LADIES MAN…

Yea...
So, I guess it’s obvious why it took 37-plus years to get married. I finally found someone who could put up with my extreme fashion sense.:)

Mary (Johnson) Smith got one look at my slick outfit and she threw-up a little just before this picture was taken. You gotta love the 70’s.

10-4 Good Buddy



Our countries roads are safe no more!






The past six weeks I have been attending Ozarks Technical Community Colleges Transportation Training Institute. This is fancy speak for Truck Driver School. Last Thursday I successfully passed the final Highway Patrol tests and I now have my Class A Commercial Drivers License. I am licensed to legally drive: Hazardous Material Loads, Tanker Trailers, Double and Triple Trailers, and any Passenger Bus or Motor Coach. The only thing I can’t legally operate is a motorcycle. Yipee!!!!
The job search begins…

Steamboat Springs, CO

“Steamboat -- Steamboat
I Like It Here!”

So the catchy promotional jingle went.

Somebody is going to have to help me put on this. I think that in 8th grade the powers-that-be allowed us to go on the first ever Greenwood High School Ski Trip. This is the group shot from that trip. This would have been in about 1983 or 1984 – maybe? Post Greenwood I ventured out to Steamboat several times with college room mates and guys from the class of ’88. Anyone care to share stories about their Steamboat adventures? Perhaps the Jones clan could post up here with remembrances.

Whiskey-Tango-Foxtrot


Not so sure what the hell was going on here...


This was titled Bungle in the Jungle 1987. Maybe an all school dance?


Greenwood vs. Marceline


Our Junior year we went to the State 1A Championship and played Marceline, MO. This picture is from the newspaper just before Thanksgiving weekend of 1986. I have blocked the outcome of that game from my memory or I would report the final score.

I can’t post to the Blog without a few pictures…
Here goes –
I believe this was the 8th grade Basket Ball team. I think we won maybe two or three games this season. The wins came toward the end of the season after we decided to all wear blue underwear. Hmmmm – the interesting things 8th Grade boys will come up with. This photograph was taken with a Polaroid Instamatic witch I don’t think even exist anymore. I title this…

SKIDMARK

Oh yea, that is very childish I know. I really have never gotten past 8th grade humor.
