Serendipity....
July 21

....yes, I know, it's a clock, but sometimes you find just the "perfect" item in the least likely
place. OK, I know, most people would look at this and ask just how fast can you get it into the trash
can?....but one afternoon in Asotin, on a whim, we stopped at a yard sale. I'd been talking about buying
a clock for the computer room for quite a while, since we tend to get involoved with what we're doing
and loose all track of time. I figured with this clock on the wall we couldn't help but notice the
time and, perhaps, we'd be less likely to get lost in what we were doing....and anyway, who else was
going to give this wonderful antique (said with tongue firmly in cheek) a good home.
Even more important is the fact that it only cost one dollar....what more could you ask?!!

This is so cute, a lucky find and what a bargain! Nicely captured, too.

What a deal. You could probably double your money at your own sale.

It's a cute clock. Anyone can have a plain old boring clock, Linda. Yours is a talking piece.
