    Not As Lean...

    Saturday night my lady and I had dinner out at Paria Outpost up in Utah. A friend's sister was visiting and asked to take my photo with her fancy camera. Said okay. Today they dropped a copy by my office.

    Another of the Leatherneck tartan handsewn with my USMC emblem jacket in honor of my little brother. Had a black band that says Rest In Peace sewn across his SSgt stripes.

    Nice pic. I see you are wearing a jacket. It must still be a bit chilly there.

    The Leatherneck tartan looks great. Your brother is hanging with Chesty Puller, spinning yarns of the good 'ol days in the Corps. He rests in Peace.

    Great shot! (Don't worry - that lean, hard, young man is still inside you... buried, much as mine is!)
