Professionally, 35 years ago I was working as a mechanical engineer in Ford
Motor Light Truck Development, developing brakes for all Ford Light trucks.
Actually worked on the forerunner of ABS (anti-lock brakes) among alot of
other things.
Personally, I had just sold a 71 Capri that I had succeeded in making almost
un streetable, but pretty decent in autocrossing - it was prepped to run in
B sedan SCCA. Bought a new Hobie Cat 16' catamaran began learning a new
skill in sailing.
Photographically, I had an Asahi Spotmatic, a few Pentax lenses and some
Tamron lenses, shot exclusively Kodak slide film and got a keeper or two
every once and a while. Cross country skied a bunch and started getting into
backpacking.

Subject: OT Thirty Five years ago.
Paul's comments on a photo he did 35 years ago an new adjustments got
me thinking.
I use to do a "way back when" column for my companies Newsletter, jobs
we had done 30 years ago, so i just thought i would put this out
there.
What were you doing 35 years ago about this time.??
Me i was doing my first of many Trans Canada Pipeline jobs, providing
precise elevations on a series of bench marks North of Toronto.
