Just like I imagined Buffalo Roam a true American Nationalist redneck, even does civil reenactment...

cant go any further than that.

I guess hes got the Confederates flag on his car too.

 

As I stated in an earlier post within this thread, I'm obsessed with my family pictures. I'm constantly barraging every one of them for pictures, albums and whatnot.

I have a wonderful aunt who just moved to Cleveland and provided me with the largest number of pictures of my long deceased mother. The first one shown, I my new favorite.

Left to right: Oldest Aunt "LuLu", Grand Mother, Mother, Youngest Aunt "Maggie";
taken in 1970, this pictures is absolutely timeless.

This is a self picture, taken about a month ago. I've found the warm glow of the six
bulbs in above my bathroom mirror provide the most aesthetically pleasing
illumination.

This pic was taken by the BF just before we headed out into the cold. And I'm not
talking about a little cold, I'm talking -14F. That's like -20C. It was skin blisteringly
cold. Thus, I hate Ohio:

you look almost like me...but not quite.

 

Yes, I am a Corporal in Pelhams Battery.

We have 5 guns, 4 12lb. Howitzers, and a 3in. Parrot Rifle.

If I can find my DVD disk I will post some pictures from the events.

This one is about 8 years old.

 

No, but we have three members who are black.
