Dad's old slides

Joe's dad would have been 63 on Tuesday. Joe got a little sentimental and found some old slides Dad had shot from the early 60s through the 70s. For a complete view, see all the pictures at Flickr by clicking here. This appears to be a self-portrait when he was still in the Air Force in 1964.
