February 2015 - Cold night in
front of the pellet stove. Cats are
curledup inall thechairs.Television
reception terrible as usual. Can’t
watch Antique Roadshow so am
surfing ebay for “interesting” stuff.
Bought a piece of red trans-
ferewarecirca1830 inmypattern
to add to my collection. Found
a used quilted jacket, but it was
thewrong size.Discovered some
LeRoy postcards that we didn’t
have in the collection at theHis-
toricalSociety:Asetofblackand
whitepostcards of theMaryLew
Tearoom andGuestHouse.
Liked the sleeping porch pic-
ture.Tookachanceonapost card
of thecanonsonTrigonPark.Was
prettysurewedidn’thave it in the
collection. (Checked today, and
sure enough we didn’t have this
postcard of the canons). Found
two snap shotsof either akitchen
utensil showor a storedisplay - -
not too sure which - - but there
were lots of Jell-Omolds in the
display. Suspect the photos are
from the 60s or 70s. Great pic-
ture of a little girl playingwith a
woodenJell-Oboxandaphotoof
