I had to look up that word. I dont know who is the contributor to the picture collection on flicker website. Some one wrote in jest ? Maybe Wars are crazy be it decades ago or now ?

In the late '50s, my father made my mother a couple of fluted edge trays out of the aluminum 'blanks'! I didn't keep one, but you've jogged my memory! :)
 
We had, oddly enough, a thunderstorm late this afternoon. Things cleared out as evening came along, and the fog rolled in as if it were a mid-summer evening here in the Upper Valley. My photos don't do justice to the lovely and mercurial evening.
