Moving on!

After 30 years, I am moving out of Sturtevant.  Here is one of the real finds that was rejected by multitudes! Impossible, you say. I cannot believe that no one would come over and grab up this wonderful TV!  Look at that picture...look at that cabinet.  Yep, about 27-28 years ago, we bought this CONSOLE TV new!  I even offered it with the most sophisticated VHS Player!  The price?  Zippo, nada, zero dollars!  And it swivels!  Yep, took us about five or six years to figure that out!  After we figured it out, did we ever use that feature?  Nope...

We were going to tape a ten dollar bill to it and put it at the curb, but thought someone would take the ten and leave us this beauty!  

Look at the clarity of that picture!  Can you believe it only weights about a zillion pounds!

This work of art is now available at the Goodwill Store on Durand!  Hmmmph!  You now have to pay big bucks for it!

The VHS Player?  Well, our dear friend SER grabbed that thing up in a heartbeat.  However, he tried to escape the house without that great collection of VHS Tapes! Ahem, that was part of the deal!  His media center is now the envy of the neighborhood!  Even had the remote for it!  I know you are all seriously jealous of his find! 

Wish I could have seen you all, but there was just not enough time for us to get this project handled and entertain.  Next time, we will be there for fun and games.

Oh, there is one other item still available (as far as I know) and that is an exercise bike.  One with the big fan-type front wheel.  The handlebars go back and forth alternately.  If you are interested, it's still in the basement.  The cost is the same as the TV!  Dang, I should have tried to find some sucker ( oops ) customer for both of them!

Next time we are in town, it will be at the Holiday Inn on 20.  They'll make us breakfast for FREE!  Don't worry, we aren't gone out of your lives forever.You couldn't be that lucky!

In the meantime, we will see you around here or Facebook!  Ta-ta!

Let me try that again.

Weather: not too bad. A shower just went through. Sun is out now.

I will relay the hug to Mr. D...he has been a saint through all the tears...

Now to get back to work.

Tell SER he should take the Air Bike and ride It while watching all of those VHS tapes. You didn't give him your "I am curious" (add a color" tapes did you?

Wow, that TV even has color.

I was waiting to see if anyone clicked on the picture. The image on the TV is quite interesting.

SER said...
