I knew that somewhere in our house was a picture or two from 1975 with Bob (then Bobby) and his John Deere version of a Kitty Kat. It actually disturbed some folks that felt we "desecrated" an Arctic Cat but we thought it was cool. Don't think there were very many like this in the day. Enjoy and feel free to make fun of Bob's apparel.

Highwater bell bottoms.
Some of you probably don't know style and that was the first modeling job of my career.

Re: Pictures finally found!!!
We wore bell bottoms of one type or another from jr high through High School. I remember particularly in jr high that by spring the pants bought in the fall were getting short and stupid looking. We wanted them to the ground as I recall. So many indignities in our youth!
Now, in our old age, we simply don't give a rat's ass!
