Babs finds ripening cherries

Classic Machines, Part I: The REO, the Rolls and the Army Mule
June 13, 2010
On Saturday I was headed home when I saw fire trucks at the Lutheran church. Aha! A scoop! Wait, wait–they were old fire trucks. Not just, aw jeez, we have to buy a new fire truck, but Holy Wah! A 1929 REO! Surely Rob the Firefighter would be interested in this. It turned out there […]

June 12, 2010

All of this for a few bills and flyers–and surprises that occasionally appear. Most of the surprises are delightful. Recently, however, the mailbox became infested with teeny tiny black ants. […]

A special post for Louan
June 9, 2010
On Monday night Louan wrote on her Facebook wall. Would her friends (who are legion) please send her good thoughts, white light, prayers, and visions of healing on Tuesday morning at 11:00 am, as she was going in for a biopsy and would need all the help she could get. An astonishing variety of loving messages poured in. […]
