Ready for all kinds of adventures

So, I bought this new pair of pants recently. Sort of casual, but able to be worn under a sportcoat. I like them, but they fit me weird. I probably shouldn't have snatched them off the rack, but they'll do.

Well, I thought I was reaching for them this morning to wear to church. I was surprised how well they fit. I also didn't remember the fastenings, which seemed somehow different. And the zippered back pocket -- but, hey, I was tired and preoccupied. They looked fine. And they felt fine -- better than I remembered.

I was upstairs just now, dressing down for the afternoon. I wondered if I should put on my Venturing uniform to wear to this afternoon's crew meeting already. And then it hit me: these aren't the casual-dressy slacks I bought a few weeks ago; these are my new Venturing uniform pants that I just bought and hadn't worn yet.

I must say, they look pretty cool under a blue sportcoat. Versatile things. (And I must be really tired today, not to have noticed before now.)
