Early Days
My daughter, Joni, was looking through a photo album my mom made us for Christmas some years ago, and we came up with some good old stuff. The top two are after I cashed in big-time at the Bianchi Cup, then a couple miscellaneous shots, some older shots toward the bottom, including one of my first championship.
