Gary, Wane, Dee in 1980 or 1981In 1980 I turned 26, Wane turned 24, and Gary turned 21. So we could be plus or minus one year from these ages, depending on the month and year the photo was taken. We don't look all that different than we do now, do we? This was taken in Huntington, Utah, where Wane and Gary lived while working in the coal mines (I'm not sure if this was the time they lived and worked there, however.) Uncle Gary starting working in the mine not too many years after high school and stayed in Huntington for a number of years until he decided to move back to the big city. Wane worked in the mine for a much shorter time before joining the Provo fire department.
One interesting thing about Wane was that, while he grew a beard, I never remember him having a mustache. Gary had long hair that many girls envied. And it took him just as much time as any girl to wash, dry, and brush it out.
Here is another photo, I don't know when or where this photo was taken. Do you think it is earlier or later than the previous one?

I swear that once grandma told me that this photo was when Gary was 15, but I'm not so sure.
Yah, cuz that would make you 20 and you would've been gone on your mission. When was this taken??
