Mom and Dad, drinking beer in 1949. Underage Mom and Dad drinking beer in 1949. Dad writes:
We have a photo of us ... drinking beer in the Dark Horse Tavern, our favorite Estes Park hangout. We were only 19 in a state with an age-21 drinking law. I was "legal" thanks to a forged Naval Reserve identification card calling me 21.Behind the role, is the man. It's worth knowing the man.
UPDATE 10 February 2011 13:54: Mom tells me in no uncertain terms that it's worth knowing the woman, too. Sure is.

Amen, Borepatch.
And to parents: Know the man/women behind your children.
You look like the old/young man!
Borepatch, you should get that photo made into an 8X10, get the little description typed up in a stylish font, and frame them together in some type of presentation frame and hang it proudly in your home.
Heck, I think it's so cool I'd almost want to buy one myself.
