In 2008 it will be 40 years since I left Denmark for USA, and there to meet Chuck and spend the better part of those years with him.This portrait was painted while I was still in school and I barely recognize me.
So many, many years ago.
Well, this is the end of this year and the beginning of a new and better one.
And I am still here.
ps
Albin just told me, since the original is hanging in his home, that the date on it is 1961.
Much more than 40 years, as he points out.
We should all have cousins like Albin.

And now when I write this comment to your blog, that very same drawing is wathing me from it's place above my desk. Happy new year.
I forgot to pay your attention to the year written at the drawing. 1961 – Even I can’t remember that long, that’s far much than 40 years. ;-)
Alan,
That is just how I picture you.... it is hard for my to think that you are in your 60's. I still think of you as a forty something man, with stunning blue eyes!
You have always been blessed with good looks! You look great for your age!
