LET'S ALL POST A PICTURE OF OURSELVES!

 Pages:  1    3  ..  5

AmoPescar - 2-11-2011 at 02:17 AM

Skipjack Joe wrote in another posting that maybe our avatar should be a recent mug shot of ourselves.

So...how about we post a recent picture of ourselves. A recent picture of you (or you and a significant other) in Baja would be especially good, but any picture will do.

I've been fortunate to meet many of my fellow Nomads over the years, but I know I'm always wondering what other Nomads look like. Maybe if we run into each other in Baja or here in the good ol USA, we'll recognize each other!

This was last done about 3-4 yrs. ago and I think most of those may have been lost when BN had a server crash.

Here's a current picture of me taken on 2/6/11 at a family gathering in Orange County.


My avatar is another recent picture of me..."Ho Ho Ho"

Hope you'll ALL participate!

Miguelamo/Michael :yes: :spingrin: ;) :light:

dtbushpilot - 2-11-2011 at 08:02 AM

I often wonder if I am running in to Nomads in my travels but don't know who they are. I usually have a picture in my mind of what someone might look like but so far every Nomad that I've met has been very different from the picture in my mind.

I doubt that most Nomads will play along, a lot of folks here have rubbed others the wrong way and need the protection of anonymity that the internet provides.

I on the other hand have nothing to fear as I've never made anybody angry here and I'm certain that everybody loves me:lol::lol:

I've posted my picture many times but here is one of me and a hot chick that I met on the beach.



And here's a picture of my boys Bob and Seth plotting the demise of our smelly dog Cacahuate...

so true DT....before my mug appeared on here, people used to show up and ask for Shari...and when they found out it was me they said...Oh I thought you'd be ...ummmm....bigger!:lol:

hey McFez....I wouldnta pegged you for a ponytail guy!!!! which leads me to wonder how many male macho mr.nomads have ponytails?

Pegged me all you want....I get no offense from that. Pony Tailed since 11th grade...except during the Navy. Whenever I walk into a bank....the security guards place their hands closer to their revolvers .....there are some negatives with a pony tail :-)

dtbushpilot - 2-11-2011 at 08:22 AM

I have a mullet, that's why I only post pictures of me from the front:lol::lol:

bajaking76 - 2-11-2011 at 08:32 AM

I have a negative hairline...so I tend not post my picture so as not to scar....

Pompano - 2-11-2011 at 08:34 AM



Heck, I've plastered my mug so often on nomads I doubt I could go incognito long...and why would I?....

...but..if you had seen me when I was
Pompano Barbado??- 1978 mas o menos.




This is me present day...the taller one. (if you want to improve your looks, it doesn't hurt to stand next to beauty.)
:yes:

You can "take charge" of your hair line.......I, of course have a full head of hair, I only shave it because chicks dig it:lol::lol:

shari - 2-11-2011 at 08:38 AM

Mcfez...no offense intended...I'm a ponytail lover from way back. Juan's pigtail now reaches his thong! He started growing it when we got married and I figure he'll win the prize for the longest ponytail here.

MANY, MANY THANKS TO ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE POSTED PICTURES OF YOURSELVES!

It’s really wonderful to see all your smiling happy faces. We who love Baja know the reason your smiling is because…you’re either in Baja or… you’re thinking about Baja! It tends to have that effect on us.


TO THOSE OF YOU WHO WERE AFRAID TO POST A REAL PICTURE OF YOURSELF…JUST DO IT!!!(we promise we won’t laugh at your picture)


To those of you who posted multiple pics…an extra big thanks!

A special thanks to Ken Bondy for finally posting his real picture…what a nice looking family!

Thanks to Pompano (Roger) for posting several pictures of you and co-pilot…she is a beauty and does make you look better!

Many thanks to all of you who (wisely) included a picture of your spouse or significant other.

And also...to those of you who sent in pictures of you with your pets/best friends! We know they are a significant part of your life and it’s fun to see them too!


TO THE REST OF OUR NOMAD AMIGOS…KEEP EM COMING, WE’RE ENJOYING SEEING THEM AND WANT TO SEE YOURS!!


Tu Amigo, Miguelamo :yes: :) :tumble: ;)
