For week/year 18 of my 52 years celebration, I actually don’t have any pictures of me from age 18 to 20, so I’m jumping ahead to a photo of my 21st birthday. #ThrowbackThursday #52years

For week/year 17 of my 52 years celebration, from 1987: the entire Form 7 of my college (or in US terms, the senior class of high school). I’m in the center of the second-from-top row, wearing my “Head Librarian” badge. #ThrowbackThursday #52years
For week/year 16 of my 52 years celebration, from 1986: my high school (college in NZ terms) form room photo. I’m in the blue sweatshirt in the center, with my best friend Donald next to me with his eyes closed. #ThrowbackThursday #52years
For week 15 of my 52 years celebration, from early 1980’s: a picture of my extended family on my mother’s side (I’m in the top-left). #ThrowbackThursday #52years
For week/year 14 of my 52 years celebration: me on a trip, probably somewhere around age 14. #ThrowbackThursday #52years
We’ll be heading home today. Here are some pictures from yesterday on our camping vacation, including a stroll down to the harbor beach, lunch, and a cat visitor. (We also went for a couple hours drive down the coast, and Chinese takeout for dinner; no pics of those.)
Today marks 20 years of living in the US. Jenn and I moved here from NZ two decades ago today. We landed in Los Angeles, visited Disneyland, rented a minivan, and drove up the coast via San Francisco, Portland, etc to the Seattle area to visit Mom. #ThrowbackThursday
For week 13 of my 52 years celebration, another photo from the 1970s; this time a portrait of me. #ThrowbackThursday #52years
For week 12 of my 52 years celebration, another photo from the 1970s, of me, my brother Neville, and our mother having fun on a backyard water slide. (I have very few pictures of myself as a tween/teenager, so I’m using these older pics.) #ThrowbackThursday #52years
I’ve been posting daily Paladin pics, but how about something a little different — a couple of pics of Pippin on my shoulder. 🐈
