he has an old out house in his back yard...part of the historical society...

I LOVE old stained glass!! It's so damm expensive though!! I got these on Ebay pretty cheap, but spent a bit to refurbish them...

The stained glass guy says, by the type of glass, they date from mid 1700's to early 1800's....

We had an old outhouse on the property we sold to move here...STILL WORKED TOO!!!

Ten Thoughts to Ponder for 2008

Number 10
Life is sexually transmitted.

Number 9
Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

Number 8
Men have two emotions: Hungry and Horny. If you see him without an erection, make him a sandwich.

Number 7
Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day, teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks.

Number 6
Some people are like a Slinky . Not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs.

Number 5
Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

Number 4
All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to Criticism.

Number 3
Why does a slight tax increase cost you $200.00 and a substantial tax cut saves you $30.00?

Number 2
In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

And The Number 1 Thought
We know exactly where one cow with Mad-cow-disease is located among millions and millions of cows in Amer ica but we haven't got a clue as to where millions of illegal immigrants and terrorists are located. Maybe we should put the Department of Agriculture in charge of Immigration.


And for 2009 – remember:
' Life is like a jar of Jalapeno peppers. What you do today, might Burn Your A$$ Tomorrow'

Hi all...popping in to say Hello. My dad can make stained glass items.
(pretty darn good at it too!)
Hope everyone is doing good.

I like the number one thought especially..........Putting Agriculture in charge of immigration.....
Because the story line was so funny.....( or really not, but .......really is......, Oh there is a blonde statement for ya')

Thank you Allycat..........That really helps with the absence of our Jungle George.
I wonder how he liked his visit back to NEPA and to upstate NY?
I know we're all missing his little snips ( well some, I could do without the crazy dog under the mistletoe)
Eeek.......
If I see anyone with a little pup who looks like JG on my way down south......He'll get one big hug from NEPA.......( odds of that?)
Well, I hope he gives us a book of facts ( something like SWB does...lol) about his journey North......
Oh boy, I have to get busy around here........I'm not done as yet.

Summering, when do you head south? SC, right? My b/f's Dad and step mom are in Santee. Nice place, but too far south for me. I LOVE the snow and the wintertime. However, I'll be ready for a visit in March when we start to get teaser weather, by then I'll be ready for Spring.
