This picture of Jason was taken just before he left for the Junior-Senior banquet his senior year of high school, a Really Big Deal here. He had washed his car and gotten it all clean and shiny and gotten himself all spiffed up in his tux, so he was “shining,” too. 🙂

No, he kept it up pretty well except when he was really busy at school. He loved his car. 🙂

Oh, I remember when I was his age, a clean shiny car was a must for the weekend. Good memories brought to me just by looking at this picture.

Handsome!!

Great take on the theme. 🙂
srp on June 24, 2007 at 2:40 am said:

How excited he looks! I love the way teenagers wash and shine their cars… for a month or two and then it becomes a place you take your life in your hands to enter. I imagine the boys are better at keeping cars shiny than girls are…. or as my Nyssa would say… “it’s a guy thing.”

Hi Barbara! It’s good to be back…. Jason did a good job shining up that car, I’m sure he arrived at the banquet in style. He was looking pretty spiffy too, hope he had a great time. Great choice for this week’s theme! Happy Hunting and great to see you photohunt again 🙂
