Sunday Pic of the Day

I just can't stand seeing something old which I know how fix go to the scrap heap. I bought a 1910 Wyoming pattern saddle the same day. This winter I will re-fleece and re-stitch it for my granddaughter to ride.

We are up to 4 cuckoo clccks now. It plays hell with the work-from-home conference calls when they all go off.

Four cuckoo clocks going off at the same time would sure help reduce the chance of "rabbit trails" and keep your conference calls on a strict time schedule. ;)
 
Something a little different. I rescued this Emil Schmeckenbecher cuckoo clock from a thrift store Saturday. I spent Sunday after church bringing it back from the dead. Now I've got the mechanical part done, Mrs45 will re-paper the bellows, and then I'll put the face back on it.
$49.99 for the clock, $13.00 for a replacement pendulum, about $30 for a new set of weights. They are worth $150-$250, depending on condition. Still under budget, I guess.

No Wyoming
'Kinda thought so. 'Not meant disrespectful; glad for your sense of humor.
I just have this overly sensitive peeve about stories, photos, other information which is expressed with little to no context. Thank-you for showing location on your member info. It's always nice seeing where HT contributors reside and considering their area perspective.
