That sounds familiar but I don’t remember that one – maybe that was the one with the photo booth in it! 🙂

Fun memories…was there another store on the corner of the Eastland Mall called “Newberry’s”?

I remember a photo booth (Denel and I used to have our pictures done too) in a store across from Thom McAn shoes. It was when Long’s was still in the main mall area – not over by Lucky’s as you mentioned. Oh well – wherever we had it done, I’ve enjoyed thinking back, Shari. TY.

Would that have been “Lucky’s”? It was a supermarket up there.

It could have been Zody’s, or it could have been at the Eastland Mall – I remember getting photos done there before. Can’t remember the store, but it was across the way from the old Long’s Drug. ?? I wish there were some of you….

I think this picture of you was from a photo booth that we went to…and it made a strip of three, or four pictures…but don’t know where the other ones are! I had this in a box with school memorabilia and school friends pictures. Do you remember where the photo booth was?
Maybe at “Zody’s”?

Shari! I don’t even remember that photo you sent! Were there ones of you that day too? Oh, yes, there’s the retainer. Maybe I’ll add it to the same post. Thank you so much for sending this….I remember our Traweek days very well, and you were in the best memories. Blessings….

Hi Julie!
I was looking for something today and I came across a photo of you from Traweek days (i.e. “retainer days” for you and me! : )…then later I decided to take a break and treat myself to some reading and I came to your blog. Fun that you were writing about braces!! I scanned the photo and will send it to your email as an attachment 🙂
Love to you, friend!
-Shari
p.s. You’re beautiful smile shines joy…

Ouch – that must have been painful Ganeida. Never had that happen to me, but I do remember having to be attentive to all the food that would get stuck in them. Blech. 🙂

Cat’s whiskers! I had a set too! And plates ~ 3 or 4 of those followed by braces for years & years. Now they come in fluro colours with coloured bands but back then they looked like railway tracks.

I was about 13 when I got mine & out to tea with a newish friend [Brit as it happened & rather proper] & you know how you run your tongue around your teeth? Well I did that & hooked my tongue on the back of my newish braces! Couldn’t unhook. Emergency trip to the orthodontist required. *sigh* I’m such a dork.
