for this week's #blastfromthepast , these are my parents. They played oboe and flute together for over 45 years, doing duets, and sitting side by side in countless symphony orchestra rehearsals and concerts. Mom taught flute lessons on the side while raising 3 rambunctious boys…dad was (is) an engineer and professor.
We lost mom about 8 years ago, but dad continues to regularly play his oboe and english horn at a variety of events each year.. well into his 70s.

From about 1969 I think… for this week’s #blastfromthepast , these are my parents. They played oboe and flute together for over 45 years, doing duets, and sitting side by side in countless symphony orchestra rehearsals and concerts.

Wonderful post!
what a great photo!
Awww! Love this!
LOOOOVE! In 1969, I was a year out of high school … and I wore the exact same hairstyle your mom has here to the winter formal my freshman year of college.
+Pat Kight I remember mom going to the hair salon every Thursday for her shampoo and set… and she'd wrap toilet paper around it when going to bed to try to keep it 'just so' for a few more days!
Wow and I thought I treat myself to going to the hair salon ever three months.. LOL Seems like it took way more to upkeep back then. I have some pictures of my mother wearing a similar style..
Thanks for sharing +Dave Bell; they really truly look like a happy couple and it's great they both had such love for music.
Stunning photo +Dave Bell!
This is just wonderful!:)
+Angelika Perry it was just shampoo & set…not cut or color…and I think it was pretty reasonably priced back then. There's a salon near where I live where there are many retired beauties who still go in for their weekly tease 🙂
+Dave Bell You should know better than to use the words "weekly tease" with +Angelika Perry.;-) (exit stage left.. quickly!)
ROFL +Roni Delmonico and you not getting away that quickly! You can't just start something and run away…. hahahaha
Well… (before Roni started it..) I was going to ask if maybe that salon is a special one +Dave Bell cause I honestly never thought about getting my "weekly tease" from a hair salon… hahahahahaha
love this !! Extra Awesome!!
