I'll show you mine/you show me yours - Su 6/6/21
Comments (25)My exchange student and I redid the dining room chairs this weekend. I bought the material from somewhere, I think, Nicole had recommended. Thank you! The hardest part was taking out all the staples. There were so many and so many broke when pulling them up. The chairs are all done now, legs tightened. They just have to last a couple more years. I'm going to replace the dining set when I replace my kitchen. I liked the set when I bought them but now I really don't like the distressed look, they just look dirty all the time....See MoreI'll show you mine/you show me yours - Su 1/16/22
Comments (19)Nicole - We have a small yard so we're always looking for plants with 4 season interest. Our local nursery recommended this one and it was just about done blooming when we purchased it. We placed it by the front door and it has a wonderful aroma. In Bloom: https://portlandnursery.com/shrubs/edgeworthia Katlan - that was the best team ever and my Dad's favorite too. I have his Original Terrible Towel and mug and could probably still name half the roster....See MoreI'll show you mine/you show me yours - Su 10/16/22
Comments (19)Pitaya (dragon fruit) flower that I attempted to pollinate in my back yard a few days ago. Photo taken at 9 PM, the flower only opens at night, and there is a small window of time to pollinate - by morning, it is too late. I love dragon fruit, which is why I grow it. I had a lot of pitaya juice when I was in Brazil - it is very popular there....See MoreI'll show you mine/you show me yours - Su 6/16/24

7 years agoSince it's Father's Day, I'm posting a picture of my dad that I really like. I'm pretty sure my mom took this picture. He was born in 1907. After a year of engagement, they married at the end of 1930.

I should have posted "this". Someone got firewood for Fathers Day. Yesterday afternoon I posted "free" firewood on CL @ 12am someone emailed they were coming by!

My Dad (second from left) and three of his siblings. He was born in Germany in 1900, came to USA in 1923. I have no idea if the "sailor suit" looking outfits were actually some type of uniform at the time, or just a 'style' they liked and chose for this picture. He had an incredible sense of humor all of his life, in spite of all he went through. And I can see in this picture that mischievous look in his eyes that is one of my fondest memories of him.
Happy Father's Day to all the Dads, would be Dads, wanna be Dads, and substitute Dads out there!
