I was in the area...

[Dapper Dave]

So I stopped by Wild West Mercantile. So glad they are close! New tie time. 

 

Why, yes, Doc, it IS a peach of a hand!

 

 

Edit to add - I know I'm wearing this thing wrong. It is through the slot in the back of the collar.

Gimme 4 years, then I will be retired and the only place I'll wear a tie will be for SASS.

I have a tie I have to wear with Class A uniforms, which I am required to wear, oh, maybe once or twice a year. Clip on, required to have break away ties, so they pop off alla time.

1972 I graduated with a BSEE in Power Systems. Ten years after graduating High School, 1962.
33 years later I retired and stopped wearing ties. Tee shirts and dungarees or shorts. No flip flops!
