We only have a couple listed at the moment, but we do have a few vintage issues of the National Geographic magazines.

We even have a couple dating back to the early 1900’s.

The photography in them is just as beautiful as today’s issues, and the articles are also filled with great information.

Many changes have come to the magazine and the world over the years  - what great documentation and history these issues have!

This little collectible clock is in the shape of a classic car from days gone by.

It is made by Fossil and it is a Limited Edition.

It is die-cast and is blue with a silver interior.

There is a small analog clock that is located under the hood.

It comes in a well padded collector tin with the Fossil name on the front of it.

Too cute and the perfect gift for a Classic Car collector - you can find it by clicking on the photo above.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Tonight the County Music Awards will be handed out to today’s biggest and hottest stars.

This genre of music has come a long way since I first started listening to it back in the early 1970’s

Some is for the better, and some, in my opinion has really gone down the drain.

Before all this digital enhancing, the singers had to really know how to and be able to sing.

Today, if you see some of them singing without the magic of the recording studio, it almost hurts the ears - no tone, off-key, and no melody.

There are definitely some talented ones out there - just have to listen a little harder to hear them.

Wonder what this music will sound like in another 30 years.

Have you ever tried a set of sheets made of 100% cotton jersey knit?

We tried them for the first time a couple of months ago, and were pleasantly surprised by the feel and performance of them.

As the weather turns cooler it is a shock to get into a cold bed.  The coolness of regular sheets is welcomed in the summer, but not when autumn starts to visit again.

And it was still too warm to put the flannel sheets on yet, so we tried the jersey ones.

I have to admit, they are a bit stretchy, but they are just the right weight for this time of the year - not too cool, and not too hot.

They feel comfortable against the skin, not rough, but not smooth like regular sheets either.

Comfortable, breathable, cotton jersey sheets - treat yourself to their unique feeling.

Josiah Spode developed this famous dinnerware in England in the 1780’s.

It was named Spode China and was created as dinnerware from the orient became scarce and the demand for it became great in England.

He developed a formula for bone china and the glazing for this earthenware that is still used today.

We have several plates from the Spode Blue Room collection in various patterns that can be found here.

These classic blue and white patterns are beautiful and it is no wonder they have stood the test of time with their popularity.
