miss geechee wannabe


This picture is from the late 1960's.
I found it the other day in with some other old pictures.

I went to Armstrong State College....
majored in 
elementary education.
Had the time of my life during those years.

Amazingly,
I got chosen to represent the
Baptist Student Union
in the
Miss Geechee Pageant.
My Hodie made my dress...
she hand sewed all of those sequins on the bodice.
I didn't win the title,
but what a thrilling time that was.

My momma always claimed
 that the reason I didn't win was because
the hairdresser
 made my hairdo too big.

I think the reason I didn't win
was because the girl who did win,
her name was Marilyn,
was the much better choice.

I just loved my college days!!
