Addendum to the weeks highlights

#1.....Showing up for the Lobster Newburg, Veteran's Day luncheon at my parents house to find my 82 year old, balding Uncle in a wig. He was dressed normally, except for the well-made, grey ladies wig he wore on his head.

I initially thought he didn't realize that his new "toupe" was a ladies wig. But I quickly found out that it was a joke and part of a larger costume that involved a black t-shirt, shades, a white glove and a homemade washtub base for group sing time after dinner.

My family has definitely loosened up since the days when we could not even giggle at the dinner table.

How was your Veteran's Day?

Um. I think you had the best Veteran's Day of anyone. Yup. Uncle's in ladies' wigs. Not on the agenda here. Bummer.

Funny stuff!

We went for the free dinner for Vets at Applebees. Bet there wasn't one table in the entire restaurant that didn't have a Vet seated!
