Terrierman, the Early Years



My son was going through pictures with my folks (his grandfolks) yesterday, and they found this one from 1964. 

That's my folks -- David and Sandra Burns -- with the young me, and a pet shop mutt terrier puppy by the name of Scoot that traveled the world, and lived to the age of 15.  She was a great little dog.

Me with the same dog a few years later, below. Is my fly open?


And again, in 1966.  Is that me dog training, or am I just stuffing my face?  Notice that it's the same shirt as above.  Back when rocks were soft, and I was young, the world lived with fewer clothes (and most of them came from Sears).

  1. Same shirt and the hell with zippers.

  2. Yup, fly open, for sure, but the self-flagellation with the wood block (?) makes up for the original sin, so you're good.

    Sears clothes, check! Alabama Ave. Sears for our family, one of the first places I could direct an adult unfamiliar with the area to drive when I was under ten years old (which I did when our friends came back from The Congo).

    Scoot looks like the perfect kid dog. All American Mutt!
