Remember when leisure suits were thought to look good?

I'm so old I remember playing Leisure Suit Larry on our first pc. Was not a good game for kids

I didn't include the back story. Picture taken in front of 3104 Lincoln Way, Costa Mesa, California 92626 - May 1968. I was born Oct 27, 1960..so I am an intensely shy 7 year old, and I had a crush on Scotty. My Dad was a huge Trek fan and worked in Aerospace program, McDonnell Douglas/Boeing. Mr Doohan was visiting one of our neighbors. I can remember looking in the trunk of his car while he was retrieving a signed photo. I do not know where the photo ended up. My dad always dressed up as his favorite character, Spock(green skin and ears included). My mom sewed their costumes. She dressed as one of the lady Trekkers in a blue mini, black nylons. They had the belts, recorders, flip communicators, and the badge.

Nice. Thank for sharing this awesome memory and photograph with us

I'm so old, I hid my orphaned FFA lambs in my big city backyard in 1977. It was okay, my neighborhood was known for its wild side. I had a neighbor who had a monkey and brought Lion cubs home!

Thanks for including the map. We might've thought you lived next to Neverland Ranch or Siegfried and Roy.

Nope. To save my own sanity I've blocked some unpleasant memories and this apparently is one of them. I do remember the shiny lights from the disco balls and rhythmic music though.

I looked up the house and it looks the same. But I noticed the rocks on the front. We had rocks the same color and pattern too, just not square. I’m getting the feeling the same company that built/designed my family’s house in CA built/designed that one too. I wonder if there’s a way to dig up that info.
