Back in GS

I had a great visit to Memphis. I stayed in Momma's guest bedroom in her new cottage and she was in a very uplifted mood the whole weekend. On Sat, my bro Stephen and his youngest, Hunter, drove up from Greenwood in a pick-up. He loaded the broken side-by-side refrigerator that was in the garage out and Dave and I worked all day empting boxes, making Goodwill boxes, and bringing some stuff into the house. We made big strides and her car would fit in the garage by the end of the day. The older frige was moved from the guest house at the house Momma and Daddy vacated and would have been handy to have for extra space at the new place, but old friges just don't like to be moved....they can run for years sitting in the same spot.....the get moved, even a short distance....and they die.
more later.....

The refrigerant get bubbles in it. If you plug it in without waiting for about 24 hours, especially if you laid it down, the compressor gets air bound and burns out.

Do You Know This Plant?

Image
I photographed this small weeping shrub in Pensacola in a front yard. The purple flowers and orange berries were present at the same time on this georgous plant. The same yard had some of the same species but with white flowers that were not nearly as vibrant. It looked great in spite of a very dry summer and it is planted close to salt water. I have been doing online searches trying to identify this plant to no avail. Click to see big photo

Color Change Paint Job

Image
I spotted another car with one of those awesome paint jobs that change colors are you drive past. I used to see one with a different set of hues parked in from of a local vinyl liner pool company here in Gulf Shores. This is what I'd like on my VW Thing, but I want coral and peach shades so it look like a woman's fingernail polish rack at the nail salon. Anyone know anything about this type of paint job ? What is it called ? What's it cost. Where do you go to get it ?

Miller's Birthday Today

Image
Today would have been Miller's 26th B'Day. Here are some birthday photos from his 11th and his 15th birthday and a few others. In one he has on some of his Grandaddy's vintage Lily Pulitzer pants. In another he was so proud of the size of the catfish that he caught that he was holding the cat for size comparison. He only bleached his hair once. He walked into the room with the cat and put it on his head, but it didn't work out as planned and I always thought it was one of the funniest photos of him I ever took. Miller was the most brilliant, funny, charming, thoughtful, & loving person I have ever known. He was finishing up Grad School and had every pilot's certification possible for his age when he died. There is no telling what he would be doing today had he lived. We all miss him so.
