Mine is self-explanatory.

Mine is the Japanese water goddess Mizu Gami

 

[Flatrate]

Mine is Lance from Pulp Fiction, the couple times he is in the movie cracked me up. I am a movie buff.

While checking out the gift shop at the airport waiting for my wife's flight to get in I saw this refrigerator magnet and just had to have it. I thought it fits the forum and even says Indianapolis :-)
noboundaries , I would have known right away what that plane was, and for some reason I always thought you might have flown one.

Mine is just my bride & myself, married for 57 years.

This is Lucy, Lucille when she's bad. She's ½ Boykin and ½ Springer and high energy. Loves to play and is the most affectionate dog we've ever had. No doubt she's "my dog". She loves everyone and is content to just have people put a hand on her...

I'm blaming the tequila on this pic. The next was worse.

Call me "Pothead"

My avatar is one of my most favorite views. . .Canada Geese with locked wings landing into my decoys.

Hunted geese with my best friend for 50 years.
My hunting and fishing days however have sadly come to an end. My best friend and companion on all those adventures suffers with rheumatoid arthritis, and it's just not the same without him.

Sorry to hear about your friend but I hope you still get an opportunity to go and shoot some.

I’ve always been curious about random things that most people don’t think twice about. Personalized license plates I can’t understand drive me crazy. Since Joining SMF I’ve spent a little too much free time pondering your Avatars and why you picked those pictures to represent you amongst this group. Some of you probably didn’t think twice, others may have an interesting personal story, but I’d greatly appreciate hearing either! If anything it will free up some mental Bandwidth!

For me, I joined SMF after a long deployment to Africa where I was training the Liberian Engineers. Over few day break, me and a few other guys grabbed some surfboards (one from Peace Corps & one brought in with our gear) and drove up the coast for a few days surfing at empty breaks and Robertsport. My Avatar picture was taken somewhere along that time. It was my 6th deployment and first one that didn’t involve Iraq or Afghanistan so it felt pretty special. A unique experience, surfing West Africa. When I joined SMF it was the picture that I figured captured my happy place at the time. Now it would be something different, but I don’t want to confuse people

Ok, I hope you share your story. Again, Merry Christmas!!!

Well the "xbubblehead" reflects my past submarine service and the avatar reflects my stubborn, traditional attitude.

Don't get out anymore. . .When Rick got sick we sold all our equipment except for my shotguns.

Fortunately I have this guy to remind me of those wonderful times.

That is rough. I’m sorry and sort of understand in my own way. I grew up hunting geese and ducks with my Dad, lots of great memories and adventures. Once I went off to the Marines it pretty much stopped, I always thought I’d be back next year and we’d have another adventure, but almost 30 years later the opportunity is gone. To paraphrase Milne, “How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard~
