An Old Cold Spot
My brother Mike emailed me this photo last night. He said this was a goodbye salute that he snapped today in his garage where this old freezer has been chugging away since 1988. That was the year our mama decided she was tired of bending over and digging through it. Besides, she no longer needed the capacity and hadn't for several years. Mike and my sister-in-law spent the next 25 years "digging" through this old freezer. My sis-in-law was very good at keeping it and the cupboards stocked. The two of them kept promising each other that "It is going to die soon, so we will just keep it until that day." Twenty-five years may seem like a very long life for a freezer. It is MUCH older than that. Sears only sold Coldspot through 1976. I thought that my parent's purchased this freezer in the sixties.

Sweet shot of someone who's certain to destroy your garden. What, oh, what will you do?
:)
You are now crowed rabbit mama of all goodness.
No, on second thought, I will wish this bunny a long and happy life, even in your garden with the carrots. :-)
Happy WW, thank you for peeking at my RR machine and for your nice comment.
Nobody I know knows what that thing is.

Thanks for stopping by!
I have a "bird" at my place. Will you fly over and identify it for me? Thanks.
Thanks so much for the kind words on the passing of my Dad. It has been a hard but blessed past 6 weeks. It is nice to be home now and getting regrouped a bit but I still get weepy eyed once in awhile. I guess it just takes time. Hugs to you and I'll catch up soon... Love and Hugs!
Love,
Sue
