A fellow who will look at me and say, "I've never seen a gal wear so many pretty colors all at once."Someone who will go with me to Christmas Palace wearing Eskimo gear. This includes: knitted hats, ear muffs, turtlenecks, faux-fur coats, corduroy pants over thermal underwear, layered socks, boots, and mittens ofcoarse! There will be a prior fieldtrip to the nearest thrift store to purchase garments that we don't already have for our winter costume. If we come across any 1960s clothing along the way, we will buy them for our next adventure :)
