I found this picture in a box when The Squire and I were cleaning off the picnic table on the patio. We were married in November 1974, and this was taken sometime shortly afterward. I bought that red coat right after he proposed to me, as a celebration of my new life. I’d never owned anything quite that wild, and it expressed my joy and elation.
I wore it until it fell apart!

Awwww that is so awesome!!
At least you can understand exactly why my coworkers referred to me as a “lightbulb in a red wig”.
Heehee
It is a lovely photo. I am surprised you did not find some way to use the fragments of that coat in some way. By the way, I am waiting for photos of critters setting up shop in one of your miniatures.
Great coat and even better photo!
That is a treasured photo!!😁
