In the Early 1980's, my brother worked as an auto mechanic at Parrish Caine in Wilmington, North Carolina. The owner would buy abandoned cars at auctions in South Carolina, and bring them to the shop to fix them for resale.
One such car had several trays of Kodachrome slides
in its trunk. (1/2)

My brother saved them from the trash, and brought them to me about 20 years ago. I will begin scanning these mystery VINTAGE slides of Americana circa the 1940s thru the 1070s.
I will use the tag #MysteryPhotographer for each such image I post. (2/2)
I believe the person who shot these photos was a professional photographer and possibly an author, with roots in the Pacific Northwest (ironically, where I live).

Yes, and the disco part brought to mind my favorite photo of my older brother and me. “Stayin’ Alive” in North Carolina in the 1970s. 🪩
My brother went to U of O in Eugene and told me about them. I saw them at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland. They are amazing.
As in North Carolina native, I will defend my right to insult South Carolina whenever the opportunity arises
Many years ago(like 8?) I made the Keaton family from Family Ties and saved them to my library in the Sims 4.
So the game still populates with them as townies and they show up in the streets. My sim can be friends with them.
Anyway, here's Alex Keaton yelling at his brother Andrew at the park.
My mum worked in a pub in the early 80s and would buy me one when the man came in to change them over.
In my disability class in the fall I had several ND students. I learned a ton (from them) about how to support their engagement. Given that I generally have a student with an accommodation to get the slides, it’s easy to just post them for everyone in classes where I use them.
My parents ran a pub. When the guy came to change the charts in the jukebox he would give me and my brother the 7’’s that were no longer in charts. So we had 100s of them. Bags of them.
My washer and dryer are from the 1980s. I have repaired them each once in the past 11 years (since I inherited them from the previous owner of the house).
I plan to redo my upstairs for age-in-place, and I intend to bring those appliances out of the basement rather than buy new.
My washer and dryer were inherited from the previous owner of the house, and were manufactured in the 1980s.
I've had to repair each of them once in the past decade since I bought the place. I will keep them going as long as possible.
These were on the wall of my grandmother’s bathroom for at least 60 years. For Christmas, my brother managed to save them from destruction when he redid the house, wrapped them up, and gave them to me. I miss my grandma and these odd occasional touches of whimsy she had.
I remember there being an overlap of them one summer in South Carolina. At night, the buzzing was all encompassing.
My slides. I had 15 minutes at the end to present them.
Usually, it wasn’t my fault, the meeting was brought forward.
So the problem is that you can't put them in the car unless the customer is definitely going to use them, and so will pay for them. Unlike putting a hundred dollars of cameras in the car and hoping the customer will pay to use them.
Putting my tax forms in the trunk of my car so I don’t forget to bring them to my appointment Sunday.
Same. One of mine is in Georgia , one in Texas and one in South Carolina.
I reply to the some of them. I like writing reviews for the companies. "Terrible standards in Data Protection" etc

If the dead come walking
Up my hill in the mountains
I will line the long driveway
With the valentines
My children made
When they were small
And the dead will pick them up
And bring them to me and sit
At my feet on the porch
And I will read my children’s valentines to them

As an owner of a few nice hats, I regrettably rarely wear, the biggest obstacle is driving. I can’t wear them in the car and I’ve no place to conveniently lay them down otherwise. If I put them in the back seat I forget them at my destination.

One twink to rule them all, One twink to find them, One twink to bring them all, and in my bedroom, bind them.
For I Mochon, the dark lord, created the one twink in the fires of Mount Bussy.
I messed around in Zomboid for half the weekend.
I hotwire cars, fix them, and use them to run over zombies. On our server the zombies eventually respawn - mostly because of me and my cars. Oops..
