I love it...Kilroy was here...Kilroy went out for some beer....

When we were growing up, mom always had dad wallpapering one room or another every few years...

To make things more amusing and interesting, while doing his work, dad got inventive

After all the old wall paper was pulled down and the walls were bare, dad would come along and paint various pictures, signs, and sayings on the walls...something to amuse us kids, until the walls were again covered with wallpaper...

Of course, Kilray was here, pictures were on every single wall...above the bathroom, it was painted with a sign saying 'latrine'...above every closet he would paint 'bomb shelter' and under every window he painted 'exit'....I know he had other things planned to paint, but mom felt they were not decent enough for us kids, or any church lady friends of moms, who might drop by...
