In 1982 or 83, when I was 25-26, my sister (5 yrs older) asked me to come meet her new boyfriend. She was a ranger in Kings Canyon Nat. Park in the Southern Sierra Nevada. Her boyfriend was a backcountry packer for the park. My sis and I hiked in from the Roaring River trailhead and her boyfriend met us a few miles in with some horses. We spent a couple of days at the back country camp on Roaring River. This photo was taken then. I don't think I had showered for two days. My sis's boyfriend, Paul, took the pic. They were married in 1984 in Zumwalt Meadow in Kings Canyon in 1984 and are still married, both retired from the Park Service, on their horse property outside of Bozeman, MT, near Yellowstone. The thing is, my sis never showed me this pic until two days ago. It's so interesting to suddenly get a pic of yourself that you've never seen, that is 40 years old, when you were in your mid 20s.
