Erika's Annex Page 136 - Queen of the Universe
|
|
|
|
OK - so its not MOI! Let's get that
straight from the get go. I was only
there in an observer capacity.
|
|
But it was the Queen of the
Universe Pageant at the Wyndham
Hotel in the City of Commerce (yes
there are places called that in
California).
|
|
Twenty five lovely tgurls competing
for the title. And moi was there to
record it for posterity. Trouble is,
you can never usually get close
enough to get good pictures.

The climactic moment - crowning the Queen
|
|
|

But this is prelude. We all go there to socialize as much
as anything. SO - who in the heck was there?
