    Invitation to Tea

    I received an invitation for tea, while I tend to be busy, I could not refuse. My niece is visiting her grand parents, and today is the last day of the visit. I see her about every two years, so I had to go. Normally, I just send her a teddy bear or a doll while I am traveling, just to keep the Favorite unknown uncle status. Short story long, I never see her. She wanted me over for tea, and I showed. As for my apparel, It is hot, humid, and last minute. Really, I got the call, made a last minute apparel choice, got dressed and made it over the river and through the woods in twenty minutes. Grandmothers is actually over a river and through the woods. I take her tomorrow to meet my brother in Memphis (All my fellow Elvislution followers, E.P. be with you.) I am planning to get a picture of me kilted in front of the gates tomorrow night 8-9pm. His family resides in Louisiana. My brother and I are still haggling the ransom. His last counter offer was four pounds of cracklin (sp), five pounds of Boudan, and one pound of chickoree coffee.

    I really like the "shimmer" of that green tie. Great Look !!

    Great outfit. No qualification necessary. Agreed--the tie brings it all together. Your neice is very lucky to have such an uncle---from one uncle to another...Cheers!
