There was a time when my dad had a muscle car, but that was before my time. I did the math, my mother was pregnant with me on their 1970 trip to California. They drove their 1970 Mach 1 all the way from the interior of British Columbia to Disneyland, pretty impressive for that day and age. I believe this picture is of the coastal highway, maybe route 66? I don’t know California that well, any help would be awesome.

Dad’s car had a 351 Cleveland and is a collectable these days. After he had me, he had to sell his car and buy more practical vehicles

This was the best part of Kelowna as a kid, Flintstone World, Bedrock City! This small amusement park had all the characters from the cartoon, and a coupld small rides. They ripped it down some time ago, to make room for housing in the city.

You can just see the back of my blonde hair in this cool picture, while my mom and brother look at the dolphin. I love this picture because its so innocent.

My cousins and brother playing on the swings in 1972, in Athabasca. Uncle’s house and yard looks pretty unacceptable by today’s standards, but you never notice these things as a kid.

The older kids got to go for a really cool boat ride. My uncle Andy drove the boat, while my mom kept watch over all the kids. I’m shocked they remembered to put life jackets on us.

Here’s a bunch of the kids on the banks of the Athabasca River.

I was only 1 at the time, but my family went to Athabasca to visit my uncle and his family.
