This evening I've been invited to share "the story of my ties" with the Kiwanis Club of Richmond, KY. I learned that the motto of Kiwanis International is "Serving the Children of the World," and so I've chosen this tie -- featuring children of the world wearing their national flags -- for this very special occasion! I'll be showing off about 50 ties, some in person and others through computer display. I started keeping my tie blog in April 2008, and it now runs to 2450 entries! I have about 260 ties, including about 40 solids and ordinary stripes. And I have dozens of ties that I'd have to label as "my favorites." But I still welcome new additions . . .
