In a fit of unreasonable passion, my wife made me get rid of these perfectly good Carhart pants, which for years had been reserved almost exclusively for ship work. Every tar stain and splatter of toxic bottom paint told a story. Ah, good by old friends! I'll wear you again in Fiddler's Green!
You could always pretend to dig them out of your yard and sell them to the state museum as a prime example of early shipbuilding apparel. :-)
