I must confess that I’m drawn to a man in uniform. When Marine Corps Sgt. Justin came in a suit to the American Women’s Club to sell tickets to the upcoming ball, I considering buying some. But when I saw him dressed as Uncle Sam at the Election Breakfast, I just couldn’t resist. The event was to celebrate the Marine’s 233rd birthday and started with cutting the cake with a sword and speeches by the senior Marine present and the U.S. Ambassador. There was a very somber moment as a table set for fallen Marines was described, but otherwise the atmosphere was very light hearted. Dinner was delicious and the wine flowed until after midnight. We had a great time dancing some swing and chatting with a variety of folks.
