Susan Elizabeth Phillips gets a tiara, not me. But then I soon possessed the prized pirate hat. We were attending a cocktail party hosted by Avon Books at the Living Seas exhibit at Epcot. The windows were actually views onto a huge aquarium. But my camera didn't do it justice. |
|
The pirate hat would soon be mine. Katherine Ashe couldn't keep it away from me. Laura Lee Guhrke tried to help... |
|
|
Aha, the hat is mine! I even brought it home with me, after it was much abused in other pictures. See Miranda Neville's facebook page. Not sure what I'll do with it now... I'm standing with Adele Ashworth, Laura Lee Guhrke, and Lavinia Kent. |
