Monday Moment - Rosebud


 My Rosebud moment (i.e. Citizen Kane)

Yes, I drove to PA to see my Dad and celebrate his 90th.   It was also handy to drive to bring back "stuff". 

My brother accused me of stealing stuff  - ha, ha - he was teasing.  I asked him and my sister and they said yes to my sled.  I was two years old when Santa brought it. 

Yes - it's a freakin' antique at this juncture, as am I. 

But darn cool.................

The sucker is not corroded after all of these years in my dad's garage.  If we have snow in Texas, this sled will slide fast. 

And that's your Monday moment!  It's history.

  1. Hope you had a good time at PA and that your father enjoyed his birthday. It's good you were able to bring things back with you.
    Have a wonderful Monday and keep safe and well.

  2. Hi Joanne - coincidental ... I've just described myself as going fossilward, and of the dinosaur mentality!

    But how wonderful - your sled is quite delightful to see ... and if you have snow again (how often does it snow?!) then it'll get lots of use ... enjoy it being in pride of place for a while. Cheers Hilary

    1. I think I'll protect this antique and just enjoy it on display. It's just fun!
