Merry Christmas!

Hope this Christmas finds you and your families happy and well.  Pictured is my father (r) and his twin (l) in their coonskin caps in 1954.  I think this is the longest I've ever seen their hair in photographs until they became hippie freaks in the 60's and let it grow out a whole two inches.

      And the inside of a hippie and their ideals are great too, Baili.

      Brother!

      After a while hippiedom became standardised, almost like a uniform.

      Yes, these young men dressed just alike until they were teens or so.

    Thanks for sharing! Neat to see them in their coon-skin hats! My brother and sister had hats like that when they were little!
