[frigilux]

Great pics! Would love to see video of the Maytag working on that load of jeans.

 

[appnut]

Wow, impressed. I was doing BobLoads on Sunday myself, in fact 14 of them!! only 1 load was very small the rest 3/4 full to VERY full. That visitor can go back from where they came from

Maytag...Lighted

Hi Glenn

Another Maytag, and a Lighted Control Panel, when did you sneak that one in?? very nice push buttons, do you still have your A206?? yep you can keep the snake, are they regular visitors?? love the red flower beds..

Bob, I`m very interested to find out how you are getting on with your front loader, especially with the "BobLoads" etc, could you start a new thread perhaps giving us you experience of switching from a FL and what progs you use, whats good, whats different!!

Cheers, Mike

love the tag.. but im stayin away from that snake

 

[gyrafoam]

Beautiful flowers!

"Collapse-os" are so much fun----I am always amazed by how well they roll-over the load----and a great high-speed extraction.

Washing jeans in an old 'Tag always provided for some splashy fun and aggressive cleaning!

A beautiful snake---and well fed----must be plenty of field mice around. Personally, I would rather have the snake than the rodents!

 

[harold]

What kind of snake?

Dadoes, What type of snake that was??

 

[tlee618]

Great pics, Glenn. Those flowers are stunning! We only have them blooming indoors for the holidays around here.

Glenn, fantastic pictures, that 906 is such a fab machine! How well did it handle that mostly-jeans load? I remember a similar load we put in there last October that had decent rollover, surprisingly enough. Of course when the same load was transferred to the standard-capacity 206 (which David shot a video of, linked in another thread)...yikes!

One thing I do like about the Calypso is that (from what I saw) it can handle a variety of loads, big or small...

 

[geoffdelp]

Glenn ... great shots; thanks!

Your grandmother's amaryllis are beautiful! Like Greg said, we can usually get them to bloom here indoors at Christmas but this past Christmas, mine didn't bloom ... it waited until now ... go figure.

Your 906 is gorgeous; I love the coppertone color! Boy; it's really giving that denim load a workout!!

Do those Calypso's really clean clothes well? It doesn't seem like it uses much water.

Glern that has to be the snakeiest snake

I have ever seen! It even beats out the one on R O M E !!

WOw its also PushButton Maytag month!! Is any collection complete without one??

 

[jetcone]

[swestoyz]

Wow Glenn - nice shot of your Grandmother's flowers, and two great machines in action! Thanks for sharing with us. Gotta luv that push button ~

[gyrafoam]

Looks like some kind of a King snake?

Dr. Manny, the mechanic who maintains my washers says
NO BOBLOADS...Dr.'s orders!!!

That snake looks like a garden variety chicken snake. Usually you encounter these things walking barefoot across the lawn at night. Kind of a no no in Texas. If you keep your grass cut short, it helps keep the snakes away.
Another rule, don't ever stick your hand in somewhere where you can't see where it is going down here. You never know WHAT could be living in there. I have heard of more than one person being snake bit by putting there hands in the pansy's.

In our subdivision we had a woman that had a coral snake somehow get inside her dryer. When her husband opened the door to pull out some shirts that had been sitting in there for a few days there was the snake sitting on top of the clothing! Turns out the dryer vent was only 2" above the ground on the exterior and no trap door on the air exit.
She said her husband made screamed louder than she would have!

 

[toggleswitch]

Putting their hands in the pansy's what?

What how you handle those pansies.

 

[westytoploader]

It was only a matter of time before someone REALLY noticed the flowers...and it doesn't surprise me that it was you Toggle, LMAO.

 

[Maytagmom]
