I don't often post pictures of myself. This blog isn't so much about me as it is about France. Anyway, on the left above is me today. On the right is me in a photo that was taken in 1989. I was 40 years old.
Walt and I had left Paris (where we met) in 1982 to go live and find jobs in Washington DC. For a variety of reasons, we ended up leaving DC for San Francisco in 1986. In 1989, I was working as managing editor of a computer magazine in San Francisco, and Walt was in graduate school at Berkeley.
In 2003, after 18 years there, we left California for Saint-Aignan, in the Loire Valley in France. We're still here.

A kind and intelligent face. Then and now. And most importantly, strong heart and lungs per your doctor. Long may you live, blog and vote!
ReplyDeleteStill the same handsome man.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see you then and now. That's a nice photo of the forty year old you- you look like a french guy from the movies in that one.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Evelyn!
DeleteSuch fun to see the you with white hair and the you with dark hair... all the same you! It would have been fun to have had Walt take the picture for you, from the same angle as the earlier one :) I bet only the hair color would really look different.
ReplyDeleteTime has been kind to you! My move to France was in 1972 when I was 25. I had a wife and two very small children. If you saw me then, and saw me now, you wouldn't believe it was the same person.
ReplyDeleteI got behind on reading your blog and made a comment on the post where you talked about your doctor visit. I don’t know if you would see it now. Please go back and read my comment about prednisone on the post. You look pretty cute in both pictures.
