I will probably never get there --but I enjoy seeing the areas from your eyes.<br /><br />I don't know why capris for men aren't worn in this country much... Weird!!!! But--I do know that many men wear sandals--including my sons. Why don't you start a "Capris for Men Campaign" ---and maybe they will catch on here!!!!! ha<br /><br />Have a great day. <br />Betsy<br />PS---Glad to see a photo of you..

But since then, the times have changed there because of soccer.

And i laughed about the scene to get into the perfume "like chickens going for a cob of corn", that was very well said. But i visualized the hassle that even almost knock you off or anybody just to get to the perfume. And you are big huh! If i am the one in there, i will be toppled off! It acted like a very potent potion, oh now i am curious of the brand, haha! Can you tell me that?

You know, the very ones Thomas Magnum wore in Hawaii ? I made the mistake once of taking some Britiah friends to Mexico in the late 70s. Mexico was still pretty much reserved even then. I remember how most in the hispanic culture resisted even the hairstyles of the long past by that time hippie movement. Men in Mexico never even wore short pants period, let alone those athletic styled Grapevines. <br /><br />So I got alot of whistles and stares down there in Tecate. I still love and miss wearing short pants. Or rather I should truthfully say that I miss the environmental climatic reasons for wearing them. <br /><br />On the perfume front, what I have noticed over the years when it comes to any makeup and accessaries, it is not so much the women trying to attract the man as it is with them competing against each other. That goes as far back as the 1950s as I can remember. These days I haven't seen many men interested in what shade of lipstick the woman has or the cologne she wears. Oh well, my wife is allergic to them anyway. <br /><br />I do remember liking the perfume called "White Shoulders" which was an Avon product that a former girlfriend of mine use to wear. Remember the days when you first met and dated a gal and refused to wash that shirt because everytime you got a whiff of that scent it reminded you of her ? *smile*Chaparral Earthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618976919417073750noreply@blogger.com
