Not sure where I fit in...
Not sure where I'm gonna fit into this arrangement to be able to get some sleep. Lol!
Early birthday gift for the wifey
As a early birthday gift for my wife I picked up, at a thrift store rate of course :-) a 40 gallon fish tank. It came with the base, tank, lid, light, filter system, and several air pump supplies. After a little bit of cleaning and then picking up a few guppies she is loving the new aquarium. She has been sitting there for a good while just watching them swim around.
Thrift Find - Knight Rider Cutoff Challenge Race Track
Woohoo! My wife picked up the Knight Rider Cutoff Challenge HO Scale slot car race track this eve for me. It still has all the original parts and even the instructions. It is listed on the instructions as being released in 1983. Of course I had to set it up and start to work on it. It powers up good, but the track is going to need some cleaning so that I can run on the whole thing. Time to break out the pencil erasers and sand paper like back in the 80's. With getting this new track I have decided to try out setting it up on a new table area I am building and then putting in some of my train set and HO scale surroundings up. Can't wait!
The original TV commercial.
Old Glass Planet Finds
The local glass plant, John's Manville, that was around for decades was torn down in September of 2018. It was founded in 1858 and was always fun walking past it to go to the library as a kid and picking up marbles. Saun's mom used to work there for years until she retired. While walking along the river bank beyond where the plant used to be just the other day Saun and I found some of the old marbles and a bunch of the old decoratively colored glass. It brought back memories.
Thrift Find - 70's Sofa
Spotted this awesome wonder from the 70's at the local thrift shop for only $65! Now to just knock out a few walls in the house to make room for it. (Wish I could have taken it home with us)
New Rope Eel
Today my wife and Aunt went to the local pet store and she came home with a Rope Eel. She said she was naming it Nagini. It such a cute little sucker! I can't wait to see how big it gets.
