SMILE!

60s patch pants, originally uploaded by ujima.

I've always enjoyed taking pictures. Nothing artistic. I'm not a *photographer*. I'm now sorting the *thousands* I've taken at home, on trips, at school, during holidays.

I've always collected patches as evidenced by this picture from the early 60s when we wore patches on our jackets and pants. Now it's pins, mostly political, that I wear on my bags.
