Handy, homey gift

This item appears on page 51 of the March 2012 issue.

My wife, Lyn, and I found that dish towels imprinted with the name of our city are great to give as gifts overseas, and towels indicating a foreign city or country are great to give as gifts back home.

Our “San Diego” towels have pictured a map of the city, with small pictures of local sights around the edge, and we bought them at the Balboa Park Visitors’ Center. They now carry California-map tea towels for $8 each.

Our towels from overseas remind us of our travels.
