Lake House Photo There used to be a poppy red 1-18 in the basement...it was color appropriate....

I own this exact dryer at the lake house. I put in a new motor last year. Big capacity and soft heat gets things dry in 35 minutes. Mine has the end of cycle signal with adjustment lever in the lint filter door. It is a good design, still looks retro contemporary today.

My, your furnaces are so Ruud! Teach them some manners.

I did enjoy that, even though, or especially since I sold my Poppy red, but to a memeber here! They are nice, big, rugged machines that use tons of water. Thanks for the memories, espeically the color.

I has really good bones. First thing when you get windows, get a six panel door for the front and paint it a darker color, maybe burgundy. You might find a used one somewhere that could fit the 36" space. Creating an entrance is the best thing, you will feel at home when you drive up. I...

Tallulah was a female female impersonator, or a female drag queen. She was once asked what her favorite sexual position was, to which she replied, "72. That's 69 with two people watching." When asked if Tennesse Williams was in fact a homosexulal, she replied " Well, I don't know since he...

It is never economical nor ecological to replace something that works perfectly for energy efficiency alone. When the furnace breaks, get a new high efficency model by all means, but don't just replace one, it takes about 20 years to pay for itself, that way. The carbon foot print to...

The Halo from Hell DG906 is actually a good machine. Dead nuts on for Regular and Damp Dry. Perm Press seems to run hot, but it is supposed to, the theory was that synthetic fibers need to be hot, then cooled down longer, to avoid wrinkles. My Halo from Hell dries faster than any machine I have...

Very cool. Perhaps Westinghouse?

All of the fibers of the sweater are hydrophyllic and natural, and slovents are not good, as they will absorb into the core of the fiber, shrink at different temperatures and smell like solvent. Hand wash the thing in Woolite(over here in the states, a very mild detergent) and rinse and block...

Just amazing! The ceramic walls in the kitchen give me ideas!

It called to me, but I have a good untrained eye for art. I can tell a real diamond without a loop,from across the room. I was collecting Stickley Mission furniture that was thrown to the curb in the early 70's,and Stickley is based here in Syracuse/Manlius. You just look at something and...

A little more starch in the underwear load...neighborly advice.

I'm not worried. Any day now, guys like that will go out of style, then it will be my turn! I'll still be hanging laundry when that guy's pecks touch his knees, but no photographs, please. Oy, what a world where the cleft chin goyim can still get a skirt or sheet up just like that Marilyn...

It came from a store called Salvatorri's of Solvay. (Read:Salvation Army)

There is a cartridge, no doubt under the handle of the single lever that is probably clogged with sediment, or needs replacement. How old is the faucet? How old is the plumbing, and is it copper or galvanized pipe?

My border collie barks at squirrels, non stop, in trees. Cats are OK, birds are OK, other Dogs OK, but she just hates the little sumabitcin squirrels, and the neighbors complain when she does it at 6Am or so. So,now, she goes out late, like 11:30pm to pee, and then next day about 7:30am when...

Thanks, Both the dryer and the lamp are daily drivers, but the lamp needs a re-wire, hence the basement, instead of the main floor. Feedback on this artist has been tremendous. I have been scolded to not mess with it, from my NYC designer friends who tell me it is worth a fortune. The Maytag...

A Beautiful Kenmore Visimatic, but sadly about 1000 miles away from you in Syracuse.

Nope, didn't notice the clothes pin at all...
