I Remember Polaroids

I always wanted to have one.. Never got one, though.
But they once made a pic of me with a polaroid. I was sitting on an elephant's back at a circus :)

She was always complaining because I remember the picture cartridges were really really expensive for those things!

I also remember the Brownie Box camera, my first camera.

It got left by my ex's roommate who stole his checkbook and wrote a ton of bad checks. LOL I have to laugh at him for trusting someone he knew just got out of jail.  Anyway I had to do all the work of getting rid of his stuff so I...

My father can raise one eyebrow way up his forehead in one abrupt move.  This is the reason, in all the Polaroids of my childhood, it seems my brother, sisters, and I are always laughing.
I remember Polaroids when they were part...

Polaroids were so cool, Just take a pic and wait for it to develope. Good times, what ever happened to that concept, it was kick ass.
