    Keychain I made mom with '49 Washington...

    Actually she's going to hang it from her rearview mirror Nothing spectacular, but it's the thought that counts, right? Her favorite colors & I went ahead and gave it to her for early Easter gift...

    Tana, that is great!! You get an A and maybe even a gold star lol You know the cheesy little ones you stick on your paper I think it looks nice and your mom wil be happy with it. After all them years, you found it, dug it, cleaned it, mounted it and delivered it. I think that's just great thumbsup01 thumbsup01 I hope she doesn't lose it rofl

    Thanks Angie- no my mom doesn't dig sports at all... I don't either, except when I hang with friends who do lol my friends have a Go Big Brew' party (vs Go Big Blue) for the start of basketball season every year- fun! I root for our team but don't get clinically depressed when we lose! Are you a Wildcats fan?

    I think so, does it have mostly blue and purple in it? A little red? That'd be wierd if it is the one I'm remembering, 20 yrs is a long time! Glad we reconnected, it's great having a hunting buddy And thanks again for hooking me up with this here fine forum.
