The little tiny patch is from this lovely cotton I bought in a thrift store for a dollar, years ago. I made Phoenix a little summer outfit from it and still have a bit here or there.
8. The seam on the right has a little wrinkle but will work just fine. It sorta popped down when we polished it but pops back too.
Somehow damaged my left cornea today, it hurts like hell, but have to make the most of it. So we went out looking for eye patches... couldn't find any (at Target or Safeway) so Jen made me this one. ;P
Personally, I think I look more like #1 from Austin Powers than a pirate.
The Combat patch for United States Forces - Iraq
Soldiers who have been attached to United States Forces-Iraq wear the history, security and prosperity of a nation on their uniform.
According to the Institute of Heraldry, the shoulder sleeve insignia of USF-I has been worn to represent service of combat and contingency operations in Iraq since 2005. The shield patch is a symbol of the many ideals that has ushered in a new dawn for Iraq.
The patch contains four distinctive symbols:
The Star
"The star represents a vision of unity for the seven peoples of Iraq (Sunni,Shia, Kurd, Turkoman, Assyrian, Yazidi, Armenian) leading to a more secure,prosperous and free future for Iraqis."
The Crossed Scimitars
"The crossed scimitars of the insignia recall the partnership between Multinational Forces and Iraqi Security Forces essential to bringing a democratic way of life to Iraq.
The Palm Fronds
"The palm fronds symbolize peace and prosperity for a new nation."
The Mesopotamian Human-Headed Bull
"The colossal statue of the Mesopotamian human-headed winged bull recalls the rich heritage of Iraq and underscores strength and protection for the people of Iraq."
On a black shield, the star shines above the crossed scimitars. The palm fronds wrap the canvas as a base and the Mesopotamian human-headed bull is the center-piece.
Soldiers who have served in direct support of USF-Iraq are authorized the tactically colored shoulder insignia on the Army Combat Uniform and the full color insignia when wearing the Army Service Uniform.
Sadly Patch had been vandalised and was no more. Annoying because we had climbed up the steep hill into Clifton especially to see him.
Beside the 'grave' someone had written a eulogy
"Oh Patch how we miss your smile
But you will not be back here for awhile
At least you are now free to roam
Enjoy the peace of your new home
Enjoy your everlasting time - BE FREE
& say a puppy prayer for me"
Patch was designed by Emily Golden who said this about her design "Drawing on my love of crafts led me to this patchwork idea; I could introduce a different level to the sculpture because some swatches relate to the Wallace & Gromit films, whilst others are purely aesthetic. I wanted people to enjoy picking their favourite squares and locating characters!" Luckily Patch was repaired in time for the auction and fetched £36,000
Pictures from our usual visit to the pumpkin patch around this time every year. We always have a good time. This year was no exception.
I found some of my old Navy patches from various duty stations and squadrons I was in during my Navy years. So I scanned them.
I really shouldn't even be on the computer but I was so excited to see these that I had to develop one. I love pumpkin patch photos. So just one for now....

In a brief patch of sunlight in a turbulent sky, 40135 pulls away from the stop signal at Townsend Fold. Note the decommissioned signal post behind the loco, since removed.

A lot of people assume this is my husband's collection, but it's not. Some are from places he's worked, others are from friends, and some we get on vacation, when we stop by a firehouse and he trades one from his dept. This is just a small number of the patches I've got.

Well, it's the end of July and I thought the West Virginia Department of Highways would have had enough time to patch these potholes. I have sent requests to them and receive the same form letter response back. It is irritating. They did a poor job on snow removal over the winter and there were potholes everywhere but the majority have been repaired. They have even had time to pave a few dead end, less traveled roads off of this road but apparently do not have the time to send a truck up here to patch these potholes. this picture is just a few that are on this section of road within a one mile area. They did paint new white edge lines along the road, I guess that is to alert drivers not to go any further when attempting to dodge all of the potholes. WV Department of Highways sucks and it used to not be like that.
