When my son was in the US Air Force, assigned to Dyess AFB in Abeliene Texas, he visted Mrs JimJr and I at home when he could.

Since the visits were infrequent, I would prepare a series of signs along our driveway, much like the "Burma Shave" signs along the public highways many years ago.

These are the signs I made for one of his visits prior to placing them along the drive.




1: HATS OFF TO JIM
HE'S OUR BOY
2: DYESS A.F.B. 1993's
PRIDE AND JOY
3: HE'S BACK HOME AGAIN
FOR A SHORT REST

5: WELCOME TO GLENELG
JIM'S OWN
6: MAKE OUR HOUSE

7: THE DOOR IS OPEN--

8: LOVE'S ALL AROUND
WITHOUT ANY DOUBT
9: WE'VE ROOM AT HOME
IN OUR HEARTS & MINDS
10: FOR BOTH OF YOU --

11: THE TRIP'S BEEN HOT
QUITE A LONG RIDE
12: QUIT READING SIGNS
AND YA'LL GET INSIDE
