Pics from my life

[partscounterman]

Here are some pictures of my world. I brought them with to convention, but now everyone can see them.

This first one is Dennis in our cottage

Next is our Cat

We call him Kitty Boy because other names we tried didn't stick

Notice my gleaming copper pans

It looks like you...

are a Revere Ware fan like me. (Forgive me if they're not, just look like it from a distance)

I bought a vintage Revere Ware egg poacher pan which I love.

and out on the lanai.

Opening these jalousie windows lets the trade winds blow through to get my laundry dry super quick

My HE3t Washer and 90 series Dryer

BTW-That is Revere ware in the kitchen. One of the first things we did when we got together was to throw out all of our sad, old mismatched cookware and get the Revere set.

our backyard

Our playground-White Rock Beach

My shop

 

[partscounterman]

Venus said I should not sell the White-Westinhouse Space-Mates

And now you can see why I call my shop "Appliance Garage"

Nice home David! Love your colors. Green is my fav! Looks like a happy cat too!

 

[retromom]

Pacific Paradise!

David (and Dennis):

What a beautiful Ohana you have! You must feel like you are on vacation all the time! I am personally sea-green with envy at your backyard playground!

Mahalo (did I get it right?) for sharing your pics!

Excellent! I enjoy seeing details of our groups' lives, it puts a personality to the written words.

Your shop looks like a fun place to hang out. And I see a Suzy Homemaker up on the shelf! Yay!

Thanks for posting! Your Ohana is really neat; everything looks "open and airy" so to speak. Great colors too!

Neat pics of the shop! Didn't realize the WW SpaceMates set was in almond...looks just like mine except that the washer is a "potato-pulley" version!

Hi David! Thanks for posting the pictures of your home and business. Maui is such a fantastic island. I would love to be able to call that home! It was great meeting you in person,having lunch and spending some time running around Omaha with you and Beth Ann! Best of luck with your business too!

 

[maytagbear]

Looks just like I imagined!

Thanks for posting these great snaps.

Love and laughter

David, thank you for the pics. I've hoped for something like these for quite a while. Y'all have a beautiful home inside and out. Signed, another Revere user.

Hi David and Denis,
Thanks for sharing you have a beautiful home and what a simply perfect location. I love Kitty Boy he is very like my cat Tiger, I just adore cats.
Wow that’s what you call a Front Loader not like the tiny toys we get here in the UK.
All the best.
Hugh

 

[gyrafoam]

Wow! Thanks for the photo's! So glad to have met you! What an atmosphere to have a repair shop! O.K., I'm headed to the beach!--------------

 

[michaelman2]

Beach..I need a beach

Great shots ...!

 

[toggleswitch]

Hawaii is looking good for the next convention, eh?

 

[partscounterman]

Mahalo for the kind words!

See Venus, you did get it right.

I'm glad you all approve of my home and shop. Our place is small, its like Mary Tyler Moores first apartment. The good thing is that it is very private. No one even knows we're back there.

My shop is a fun place to hang out. I have most of the common new parts here in stock. I am set up with every kind of electrical hook-up so I can test and repair appliances. Dennis seemed strangly anxious to get my toy washer collection down here ASAP.

You know, several people have said something to me about a convention here. Sadly, I am short of vintage washers and have squandered some of the opportunities I have had (Forgive me Saint Robert for I have sinned by ignoring the '60's solid tub Hotpoint-I am not worthy) But who knows-we could make it a small appliance themed convention. Bring what fits in your suitcase. I'm sure with some time I could scare up a few machines. If we plan far enough ahead we could maybe get so good group rates so its as affordable for everyone as possible. Anyway, lets just say I'm not opposed to the idea.
David

Re: White-Westinghouse Space-Mates:

Hi! David, I agree with Venus, don't get rid of the White- Westinghouse Space-Mates. I've got that same or similar Set, although my Washer is a Gibson, in Almond Color and I will never get rid of mine.

I got rid of an original Set that were in Copper-Tone, they were before Company changes and I do know that Westinghouse Washer was with the "Potato-Pulley" where my White-Westhinghouse Washer has the newer Mechanism assembly.

I would like to locate one of the 1960's Westinghouse Top-Load Washers like the Yellow one at the Convention. They I agree on also had the best Washing Action, as compared to the newer Frigidaire Washers, with the Indexing Tub/Agitation combination Washing.

I'm wanting to also try and locate one of the older Maytag Uni-Body Top-Load Washer/Dryer Units, with the Electronic Touch Controls like you got recently.

Peace and Happy White-Westinghouse Washing and Drying, Steve
