This was about 1987 and can you possibly tell by the size of my hair?? My precious friend Linda is in the photograph with me ~ How did I get my hair to stand up like that? Oh, I remember, I had a perm in it ~ This photo was taken at work and I was the supervisor of typesetting for a graphics company.....
FINALLY!!! I found my fav magazine today!!! I've still got to pour over it ~ I love great magazines!
Wishing you a relaxing weekend sweet friends,
xxoo, Dawn

I guess I need to fly back to the nest and learn which box to check on the comments,,good grief! so much to get in my brain.
Hi Dawn. I wanted to thank you for posting about my blog give away. So many comments but only one winner.
I have been looking for this new magazine but haven't been able to locate it at any of the stores here.
Thank you again! Hope you have a wonderful and safe weekend.
Cheers, Sharon
ps please email me your mailing address at dswideman@comcast.net.
Goodness, you had a PRETTY car!! My first cars was '74 Ford Pinto & it was about the color of a cooked pinto bean!!!!
Dawn, what great pictures...i think my hair was even bigger than that in '87...lots of hairspray and pick action...LOL...
I was going to say the exact same thing as Marcie about Delta Burke! A friend of mine sent me a picture she found of herself in the 80's, and it was hilarious! I would never have recognized her. It's fun to look back at ourselves! If you get a chance, stop by my blog to see the pic I posted of myself from one of those booths were they make it look like you lived 100 years ago. That one was probably taken in the 80's too.

You look so darned adorable atop your car! Love that color, too. Can you tell that I'm waxing nostalgic? And, I WANT my hair to look like yours did in 1987. I think I've got one looking remarkably like that myself, including the outfit.
I can never find Somerset magazine...
No way am I posting my bog ol' 80's hair on my blog!!! Brave girl!
I have not been able to find this new issue! I did pick up Somerset In Love and Art Journaling yesterday. I think our local book store quit carrying the Life addition. My daughter is going into the city this afternoon and I have requested a copy if she can find it.
Have a wonderful Saturday Dawn!
Great Picture Dawn!!! Perfect car for you! LOL omg~ I went out and got my magazine yesterday with Romantic Homes. This rates with one of my favorite Somerset so far.... Trying to decide if I am going to send in my tin cans by February for them to have a look.
Big step for me.
Hugs and Blessings,
Yvette
Love those photos! How fun.
Glad you found the Somerset Life.
I've been searcing all over town and can't find one. Guess I'll go on line and order it.
Checked out the new blogs you introduced us to. They are great!

Hi Dawn,

Love your car and your hair! Boy does that bring back memories.
Blessings!
I showed my hubby the pic and he knew what it was as soon as he saw it.............even the year! lol I bet you wish you still had it. Wonder what those go for now? Big $$$$
Cowl neck sweaters.......oh yeah, I have quite a few pics of me wearing cowl necks too!
Love your blog! =D
Fun! Fun! Fun! What a great photo...and what a great car! Guess you caught the boys' eye with that...and your sweater and hairdo! We were so cute back then! We have to remember that the guys were running around in double knit pants and those dang disco shirts with the huge collars!
Thanks for the memories!

Dawn,
Just visited you for the first time. Love the music and everything about your blog. I just read my first ever copy of Somerset magazine -- I'm behind the curve!
Thanks for a fun visit.

I had an Opal too! It wasn't as fancy as yours though!
Oh My Gosh! I love the photos! My first car was an Opal Manta! LoL! I really liked the GT's alot but found my Opal Manta and talked my boyfriend and grammy into buying it for me-that was in 1980-I can't remember what year it was -but I thought it was sooo cool -it had a manual sunroof! LoL! I blew the engine up just about a week after getting it -forgot to check my oil after spring break!Good times-great memories! And I think we all had the big hair thing going in the 80's! You look just as young now!
Fun post!
Hope you are having a wonderful weekend! ~Tam :D
love the photos Dawn! The car and hairstyles are priceless! :)
Talk about walking down memory lane! My first car was a '69 Datsun 510, pale yellow with black interior, no a/c (and we lived in Florida), manual 4-spd. I LOVED my little car, too!! Drove it back and forth to high school on $5.00 a tank that lasted 2 weeks!!
Oh and the big hair looks very familiar too~~lol!
Thanks so much for sharing Dawn!!
Hugs, Lynn
My first car was an Opal too! But not as sporty as yours! It was red, and sadly, was a lemon, but I loved it!!
Fun pictures!!! I think I had that same sweater with the cowl neck....I had a favorite heart shaped stick pin I always wore on it too!!
Amy
Love the hair photo and the car is to die for! I'm very familiar with big hair! LOL!
