there's a thousand more out there.......

this ones from luke:

hey max. heres some old shots of my dad. i think the story goes he hooked up with some bikers during his tour in vietnam and came back, got a chopper, and joined a club. thats my mother with him in the family christmas portrait. she was a feature dancer for him in his gogo club in corpus. the yellow rose of texas. he was living the 1%er life for almost a decade before he got out and became a preacher. talk about your worlds apart. theres a couple of shots of us as a family after he cleaned up a bit. thats me on the creamsickle. hope your enjoy.







thanks luke!!

  2. Wow, this is crazy! My parents met at the Yellow Rose after he got back from Nam, too. He rode around with a few Bandits at the time. When i was young, he would take me to his buddy Rene's house and I would fuck around and sit on all the bikes. Rene looks alot like the guy to the right W/ bucket hat. But shit thats over 20 years ago, and all mexicans look alike! I heart C.C. sans bluffrats!
