This time of year, people are heading back to school, so I pulled a few fun photos of our family’s school days. When we were visiting my folks earlier this year, they had found a bunch of my old school pictures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
I dug through some pictures I had scanned in, a couple of photo albums and yearbooks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the first pictures I found while looking through the stacks was this one of my dad. He graduated high school in the early 1960’s. They certainly dressed up for their school pictures then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This ID card belonged to Walt’s brother Tony. I don’t remember having ID cards in grade school, but I thought this was fun to find.<\/p>\n\n\n

Walt has always enjoyed speech and the like, so I found a couple of pictures of him. One is from a talent show where he and a friend were a ventriloquist and his “dummy.” The other is from his senior year, when he won a couple of awards at state. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Walt was in speech, I was in drama, and enjoyed acting in plays. In “Bull In A China Shop,” I had to lie dead on stage for about a half hour. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Theater Readers Present at Ankeny High School<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n
And of course, a back to school retrospective would not be complete with out an embarrassing class photo. I had the appropriate hair for the mid-eighties!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I hope you have enjoyed a bit of a trip down memory lane and take a few minutes to think back on your own school days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
