    That's how we'll have to do it until we get a hoist lol My brother, father, and I today. The tractor is a 1967 Sears. It was my Grandfather's and was his favorite. A "stump puller" as he said. He used it for pulling trailers, cars, plowing, etc. It has VERY low gears lol

    Thank you! lol I have a LOT of beer steins. My grandfather collected them for years, and I was lucky enough to end up with some of them, as well! Not sure how old it is! The lady I got the grandmother clock said she was young when her parents bought it. She was in her seventies, at least...

    When Grandpa passed, my Grandma gave all the sentimental items to my father and I. She told us that she knew we were the only ones who would appreciate all those personal things. When you're one of 5 kids/13 grandchildren, you can't help but feel honored.

    Hahaha! Isn't it funny how we get accustomed to things like that?

    I can't believe that it's actually a fact of the matter. I'm the "family historian" as it were and know all the stories my parents, grandparents, etc would tell me. There's a lot of us left, but most have little interest. I've been fortunate enough to hear stories firsthand from my...

    Thank you! That's a shame. Always a shame to see things like that get sold off. I am looking forward to hearing it chime finally, once I finish fixing it. Waiting on a suspension spring. Ironically enough, all the other clocks in my house are chiming, at the moment. I'm a bit of a clock...

    I think that family traditions and all those stories are more valuable than anything. If a person doesn't know where they came from, they'll never truly know who they are. It's always that way, isn't it??

    Love Jack Benny. You know you're a comedian when you can have people laughing with one sideways glance.

    I picked up a pair of grandfather clocks today. One from a "Buy Sell Trade" Facebook page, and the other from Craigslist. The curio one is just a battery operated movement, but makes for a nice, lighted curio cabinet. The weight driven Ridgeway was a complete basket case when I picked it up...

    I know, I know, but I'm far far far from ready. I'm too young and Ashley is WAYYY too young. Besides, we aren't even married.

    Mama's Family and The Bob Newhart Show.

    I have no intention of having any of my own, any time soon. I'm nowhere near ready for that.

    He's a great kid, and my sister just found out a couple days ago that she is expecting another.

    Some photos from babysitting my nephew the other day. We had a lot of fun! He got to dial his first rotary phone:
