I am showing things that most of you don't consider antiques, cause you have used them.

Those pictures of the inside and outside of the farmhouse were great. You don't see many wood walls inside a house these days. My daughter has refinished my Grandmothers/Mothers old treadle sewing machine. I have used it also. It is beautiful under all those layers of old dark varnish. A beautiful light oak finish.
My condolences to the family on the death of your Sister In Law. Helen
The treadle sewing machine was what made my flour sack underwear and all of the mending and patching. Great to see the interior. So sorry for the loss of a family member.
Hi Jack and Sherry...sorry about the loss of your family member...but 84...a good long life!! and the pictures were great...and yes..the rice paddies are interesting...and you be safe on the way home...God Bless...hugs...Ora
So sorry about your sister-in-law. Have a safe trip home. Loved seeing the pictures. Take care, Sheila
I just revisited this and my mom wore those aprons, and she used a wahboard and I hate to admit it but I skinned my knuckles on ours and got excused cause I quote "she didn't want blood on her clothes."
My deepest sympathy to all of you with the loss of your sister in law. I'm sure it's hard when your on the road knowing you can't be there with the rest of the family.
I don't can veggies but my sister does. I sure wish I had all those homemade goodies sitting in my cabinet.
So you're headed to Kentucky, huh? The rain just follows you everywhere you go. From the looks of the weather map it's getting ready to pour down in the here in the boonies. I hope you've had a safe day of traveling.
Hugs
Debbie
