This is so brilliant.

We have been pretty spoiled these last few weeks with 80 degree weather. We had a lazy sunday afternoon at little corona this week...

Here's to the risk takers...

"In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the fainthearted -- for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things -- some celebrated, but more often men and women obscure in their labor -- who have carried us up the long, rugged path toward prosperity and freedom."

These were treasures too great to go left unnoticed. I'm always combing the flea market for good finds. Every once in a blue moon I stumble upon some "can't live without" big ticket items, but for the most part we collect "treasures & chotchkies" on an ongoing basis...gotta keep the collection evolving. At any rate, I like to buy old photos and throw them in letters and packages I send to people. So, you can imagine my excitement when I came across these old navy photos. Something tells me it was halloween on the ship that day...or some serious hazing was taking place. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.
