    I like her surly expression while holding a pop bottle.

    Oh, that last photo is great. I've been scanning my way through a big stack of family photos, and I can't get over the colors in photos from that period. There were a whole bunch from a trip to San Francisco my mother took with her family in the late '60s, and they make me think the world must have come in different colors back then.

    (they're all here, for the record.)

    Awesome!
    Such great equestrian style, haha.
    The last picture reminds me of the show Mad Men where Betty is at her horse club.

    What a great find! I recently found some pictures of my mom with beautiful loooong hair and had to keep them for myself.

    I agree with the other posters: you look so much like your mom. Also, there is something very "Betty Draper" about these!
