Wonderful Photos! and very fun to view... Thanks for the history, very interesting. When I think of a life guard I think of a swimming pool LOL.. I feel like I went back in time, these might also look great in black and white giving them a older feel. It sure was nice of them to let you up front to take the photos :) ~Alan~
