Looking Through Some Photographs

Saturday night.
We just got home from Aquatica, Seaworld's version of Wet & Wild.
Great fun.
I was going through an old box and found these gems.
Some of these have probably been posted before.
In no particular order... as always, click the picture for a larger view.


This was taken at our first apartment.
No wonder I rarely had you guys over.
A temporary case of mental retardation.


Titi Lidia standing in front Fora's pantaletas.
We miss you sweetie.


This is one of my favorite pictures of Mama.
Doing what she loved best.


Every time we post pictures, these 3 always seem to pop up.

Patti doing her best Pocahontas.
Sorry girls. You know we love you.



Can't show one without the other.
This is Millie's one sided version.
Either that or the photographer slapped a mojon
on the side of her head at the last minute.

Speaking of which.. check this out.


OK. Last one to embarrass.
Can't forget the Little Rabbi.


Mom looks like Papi se tiro un peo.
P.U.


This is where Jerry Seinfeld got his idea for Kramer.
Check out Dave's do.







Dave doing his best Elvis Costello.
There's Chick looking over his shoulder whispering
"Do you know how silly you look?"





Mom with her two boys. I think I was under the bed.


The Gold Man himself.
For non-family readers, his nickname was Oro, which meant Gold.
Gold he was. We miss him.
Saramabeech! Dame un palo!
We love you Papa.


This was the other time I had no hair.
I have no idea what's by my feet. Mom, is that a dog?


Where do I get my good looks?
It's in the genes, baby! The man, the legend.
Love you Pop.



Did you know Roxane use to work on the Love Boat?
Check out the hat.


I'll give you a nickel if you guess who the guys on each end are.
Post it in the comments.


The family's first business man.


Finally, if you're ever invited to the Cardona's for Thanksgiving,
you might want to bring your own turkey.

I will guess the boys on the ends are Cangi's oldest sons (Sal - on left and Carlos on right)Am I right?!?

Whose the Linda Kilroy look-a-like next to Tom on the last pic?

Wow, Bro U, those were some great photos. I’m sure they take us all back to really good memories.

That Don Mojon commercial was hilarious. I couldn’t stop laughing. Thanks.

I’ve never seen that picture of Papa Oro. That too was a classic.

I don’t know who the webble-wobbles are in the picture with the Cardona boys. I don’t think they are the Guzmans (as Pastor Tony guessed). I’m going to guess Eddie Soto.

Great blog posting!!
Much better than my burnt wiener.

PS: Pastor Tony, quidado lo que dice. That “Linda-Kilroy” look-alike is Chicky’s sister-in-law, Judy Rivera. Let’s see you get out of that one!

U said...

Sal and Carlos Guzman! You're right.
Yes, that is Chick's x sister in law, Judy. No comment.

I've got pictures of Tom with his Coke bottle sunglasses. Show me the money and I'll post them. Send me enough money and I'll post the one of me naked.
