Mar 26 - Army Surplus


Mar 26 - Army Surplus
Originally uploaded by DamnBeavers
My daughter told us that tomorrow there is some kind of "WWII Theme" at school. There was a lot of drama about other various requirements, all of which had to be completed "right now" (wow, this really sounds like working at a Software Company). When asked how long she'd known about this (which we knew would have been an "Oh, a few days") we explained the difference between "expected" and "actual". Somehow, a WWII theme extends to BDU pants from my wife (who did not serve in WWII), dog tags, new style combat boots (again they were not in WWII), and a "Hot Shirt" which was most likely not standard issue in any war. On the PaD forefront, I left the camera gear at home this morning on purpose with the expectations ("illusion") that I would come home before 6pm so I could get out and get some kind of dusk shot. I'd envisioned a beach scene if there was enough time. I got out later than expected, it had already started to rain, and was so overcast that it was too dark to do anything outside when I got home.
