The stories they could tell...

Indeed!

I do know a story or two that go with the sailor who donated one batch of uniforms because he's friend of mine. One story is that he took part in an atomic bomb test and he's going to donate the participation certificate he received. He's getting it framed before he takes it to the museum.
As far as I know, he doesn't glow in the dark. :-)

Another story is he's had a good life since leaving the Navy. He married a sweet, beautiful woman and raised a family. A happy story.

Most of the uniforms most likely have good stories but there are bound to be a few that don't.

Thank you, Kathy. They come up quickly and fade just as quickly. I’m just glad I captured them at just the right time!

It's the first day of the workweek, Early Birds!
Let's have a tea party!
Take our minds of what we NEED to do.
And focus on the good stuff!
Did all of you have a Wonderful Weekend?
I did. Quiet and boring...perfect! LOL!
Have a Mahv'lus Monday!
And for goodness sake...
...don't work so hard!
It's bad for your health! 🏥
((((hugs))))

Howdy, EGC! (((hugs)))

All is well here in the desert of West Texas. We actually got a bit of rain last night, and our yard brightened right up!

Hope you and Gizmo have fun at the lake today! Also hope he doesn’t run too far afield. Would hate for that dog catcher to get to him before you do! Stay cool!

((LOL))Well, thanks LUV W. Unfortunately, our area is under a Heat Advisory so we’re not going to be able to do too much outside today. We may do a ride in the country instead.

A ride in the country with the AC going, sounds like a much better, healthier plan. :) Enjoy!
