Big Hair from the 80s ... Walmart Signage

Here is a pic of me when I was 16, standing on the beach in Ocean City, MD. Yeah...I had a sort of hybrid mullet thing going on. I miss the extremely low body fat that I sported in those days but I definitely don't miss the hair.

If you haven't been to Ocean City, I highly recommend it. The beaches are really nice, there are quite a few attractions, and if you like eating crab or salt-water taffy, this is your place.
My wife took this photo below when we went to Macy's the other night. She is always ready for photo shoot for our entries to weekly memes.

Happy New Year Everyone!

    You have both yellow and blue monday covered there. I have been to Ocean City. My sister used to live nearby. However it was on a very cool and windy April day...in the 90's.
