eBay: VINTAGE GE FREE STANDING STOVE/OVEN. 21" wide. 220V Olive Green. (Idyllwild, California)

I think this range is kind of cool looking, and it seems to be in great shape. It would fit nicely in a basement spot I have. But, it's way too expensive ($500) and too far away. And, isn't the oven missing a shelf?

You are right about the price, but it does look to be in good condition with light use or very good care, considering its age. Finding another shelf should not be too difficult.

That's a cute little range...

...but you'd better tie it in good for those twists and turns back down the hill from Idyllwild. It is very pretty up there.

 

Photo gives you an idea of how much Palm Springs and adjacent cities have grown.

Beautiful picture

What's it all gonna look like when the water runs out?

The natural aquifer beneath the desert floor is replenished with water from the Colorado River. That doesn't mean we're free to waste any water, but things here aren't as severe as in the rest of the state. Californians are great at banding together to pull through a bad situation. The drought is super-serious but we've had water shortages before and the state will have them again. 

 

Sorry to Dean for taking his post way, way off track. I need a slap.
