Believe it or not it still runs. It's in my sisters garage. It's just a tiny little thing with a tiny little cubby for ice cube trays. Has to be defrosted. :) It's always been taken care of and used for extra drinks. I cannot think of the name but it was a famous name back then..and I think is still around.

I...Oh, I'm so thankful about your refrigerator! I found out a few years ago that they no longer make refrigerators that are meant to last 20 years, like they used to. B/c of gov't regulations about the motors (or some such nonsense), the motors only last about 7-8 years now, and that's all you can expect a frig to last. Can you believe that? How many frigges go into the landfill now, after only a few years? How is that an improvement?<br /><br />Ah well. So glad your fellow had a part in his van and it's humming along happily now. Your statues are very lovely.M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-30840956551539099702014-08-16T14:17:23.708-04:002014-08-16T14:17:23.708-04:00Such lovely pictures.

You have flowers that I've never seen before since I live in zone 6b/7a. Fall has arrived too early here. My basil is even browning from the too cool nights, and I never even had a chance to cut it for preserving!<br /><br />I adore St. Francis' bagworm earring - what a hoot! And your flowers are so vibrant and lush. I'm glad you got your fridge repaired without too much loss, and esp. that you did not have to replace it! <br /><br />I've been playing house lately, but today I'm finally getting back to work in my studio.

I wish I could learn how to use the camera I have. I think it could take nice photos if I knew what to do.<br /><br />Your garden looks great even with the heat. The lizards sure seem to like it too.

Our clothes dryer is OLD (washer is too) ---but still working. SO--I won't replace anything til I have to.. <br /><br />The oldest thing though in our house is our big AC/Furnace unit outside... That big unit came with the house --so it is over 30 years old.. Still working though and when the maintenance people come once a year, they are amazed that it is still doing so well....<br /><br />Love your flowers... Stay COOL down there...
