The Good Old Days I loved 2 cycle engine Lawn Boy mowers. Quiet, easy to start, dependable and light weight. The grass catcher worked great but the support stick was quirky. I have a newer Lawn Boy with a Honda engine that is a stellar machine but I'd buy a new mower tomorrow if they revived...

Upstairs Convenience My point is that having laundry upstairs is NOT convenient. I'd rather bring it down where I am all day and be on top of moving loads through, pulling some items damp, and folding or hanging everything as it comes from the dryer and then ironing items that need it as they...

Cook Top vs Oven My experience with modern Kelvinator ranges wasn't too positive. The large console blocked full use of the rear burners and the dreaded preheat setting, no broiler heat during baking wasn't a stellar performer. I have no objection to the kitchen or Avocado green. Kitchen...

Custom Cannery We didn't have running water and just a wood fired cook stove but lots of friends and neighbors gave us fruit and produce. There was huge warehouse style building in our town with rows of metal counters and sinks, a huge trough of scalding water, an ice machine, corn stripper...

Close the Door I could close the bedroom door and shut out the light but a whole other part of my pathology is sleeping with the door shut, it feels like being put in time out.

Varoom Patrick found mine in Vancouver and brought it up from Portland. Ran it twice today.

Our house in Ellensburg has an upstairs laundry room. Its large, has lots of cabinets and storage and room to leave the ironing board up. I find the upstairs laundry an annoyance. Since I'm not upstairs during the day it's an interruption to run up and down to answer the chime of the dryer and...

Youngstown Did you notice the metal cabinets on either side of the range? What a classic example of great design. What year did Westinghouse switch to a 70/30 oven configuration and move away from two ovens of equal width?

Wishy Washy I realize its a bit big for carry on baggage but anyone who wants the Kenmore wringer can have it. Everything works, even the timer. When first running, it squeaks off and on for the first minute or two and then its quiet for the rest of the wash day.

Paying Forward Ron, everyday you go into the world you are an emissary of kindness, generosity and hope. When enough of us join the side of compassion and acceptance there will be a tipping point and the World can change. Fondly, Kelly

Drifting that Way I feel good, I'm relatively pain free. No more chemo since April and I was surprised at how calm it feels, just on a field trip from here on. After so many delays, I have tickets in hand to Kansas City in July, the highlight of this year's adventures. Peter surprised me...
