Geoff - great pics. I got to my first Marine Corps Ball this year and echo your sentiments. These are fine young men and women serving these days and what a pleasure to socialize with respectful, well mannered marines and their partners.
Not a marine myself, but more than pleased to know many and to respect the 234 years of service and devotion to this great country.

I wanted it to look a bit more dressy. According to my Lady, it looks better in person than in the pics, but I am not sure I am 100% happy with the result yet.

It does dress it up a bit. I have a plain black one I am going to make white tassels for, out of an old white fur collar of my wife's

With a beauty like Michele on my arm, how could I not have a great time?
