This is such a great site with so many awesome people. Many who have already met, but for the ones who don't know what we are about or who we are let's post some pictures. I know that we have the Who We Are gallery http://www.ncwoodworker.net/pp/showgallery.php?cat=93 with members pictures, but many might not know to go there, or realize the fun of commenting on folks pics.
So to start this off.... this is me, and my beautiful daughter last year about this time -




And for y'alls humor a few of me doing my other favorite activity (besides beer drinkin')

Me and a few of my college buds on top of a mountain in Washington state -




The beginning of that month long backpacking trip. I can't believe how skinny I was back then ('99) -



Me and my now wife at Joyce Klimer Mem. forest in NC (~'95) -



Now that I've bared my soul and bad hair stylings. I expect y'all to do the same. Let's see you are. Pictures of you, pictures of you doing things that you love or with the ones that you love. Or just goofy pictures of you in high school.
This is gonna be fun!!!!


Dave

Ernest you seem to have the knack for creating beautiful woodworks and a beautiful family. Thanks for the picture and making this site just a little bit more attractive.

Mike thanks for reviving this thread. Although I made it a sticky, that doesn't mean folks will post to it. I scrolled through the whole thing again, and Man it made me smile. The pictures are great and getting to know folks better is always a good thing.
So let's keep it up. We have so many new members, lets show them what a special group of folks we really are.

Re: Who are you.....

Well, I don't have a lot of photos in between "now and then," but I do have quite a few from the past few years. I'm glad you started this topic Dave. I ran across so many hilarious pictures while searching for a few for this post.


First grade. My facial expression probably says it all as far as how I felt about wearing that shirt that day.




College (I'm on the right)



My buddy and I at the last Phish show in Coventry, VT (2004).




Do NOT try this at home.




My family and I at La Plaza Del Toros in Sevilla, Spain (2004).




Surfing in Frisco, NC (OBX) during the Gabrielle swell last fall.




My girlfriend and I at the beach on Sunday.

Cheers,

Wow, Gail is beautiful....what the heck is she doing with a guy like you.
The only thing that comes to mind is.....


If only you were holding drum sticks

Thanks for the picture Steve, it's got to be the best one yet.

Well, now that I finally have a picture ... figured I'd better post it to this thread

Here is a picture of me and my kids -- Hailey (26mo) and Braden (3mo). Missing is my beautiful wife, Heather ... but look at the kids and imagine -- she's blond with blue eyes! haha

Great pics Danny, thanks for posting. You've come a long way from the bib wearing toddler to the patriarch of a great family. Love that late 70's tux, that is classic

Re: Who are you.....

Sorry, nothing from the 70's....in fact, go too far back in that decade and all you'd get would be an ultrasound

In Amsterdam about a week ago




And with the better half in Prague, trying not to spit beer. Wish I remembered the joke

Oh, Amsterdam, that's one place high on my list of "want to visit". Thanks for the pics, you're not as funny looking as I had imagined ...picture a Picasso painting, very cubical
