Sweet and Sweeter

Never before has one bench held so much goodness and flows from the hearts of Terry and Paul. Its amazing how many bonds of friendship have spread their tentacles around the globe all because of Robert, his hard work and generosity. Thank you all for the pictures. Its a bit like seeing a glimpse of heaven to be in the warehouse. Combo is perhaps are most expert repair authority and its fun to see the spring board from whence it all comes. I am glad so many of you had an opportunity to go and are so kind to spend the time to load and upload photos for all of us to share. You're right about DC Greg. It would take days just to see the entire Smithsonian even if you only gave a 5 second pause at each display. The Smithsonian is only a drop in the bucket of the history in each building and it's place in forging the basis of democracy.
 
More Photos!

I just got home from Baltimore about 30 minutes ago and need to get to bed... I will post more photos tomorrow after work, but here are a few more for the time being!

People traveled from all over to attend this event, including California, Minnesnowta, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Tennessee, Texas, Kentucky, Florida, Massachusetts, Georgia, Nebraska and Montreal, Canada. There may have been other states, but thats all I can think of.

Here is the view from above....

The combo wall!

Every machine you can see along the back wall in photo is a COMBO washer / dryer (Um, I guess that's why John's screen name is COMBO52!).

They are from the left, Whirlpool, Speed Queen, 4 Kenmore / Lady Kenmore combo's including a large 33" model (like the one I have), A Westinghouse, 2 Bendix' and the one on the far side of the one lit up at the end is another Lady Kenmore Combo!

I counted 6 or 7 OTHER combos around the warehouse including an early 70's (?) GE combo, a beautiful Philco-Bendix combo and an ultra rare Easy Combo too!

Thank you

Thank you all again for the great Wash-In. John/Smitty you guy's are the best. Sorry i didnt make it to your brothers but the hang-over caught up with me. Sorry again, alcohol/washers/cool people = bad me. LOL.
 
oh Sharples/ Graham:

Think of booze as social lubrication.

Too much lube and it's hard to get a grip...er.... things get out of hand....er fall out of place...er..uh...well you know what I am trying to say.

At least you were pleasant all day and night and no one felt the need to throw you in that classic ball-and-claw oval bathtub and shower you to awaken you!

It was good to see you and I hope you are fully recovered today!
 
the aftermath

The rags were dried and folded, floors vacuumed, trash taken out and leftover food distributed.

Here is what is left....
