Charlie arrived on January 2nd and now lives in the garage which was once occupied by Otis. Charlie is a good guy and fun to drive.

Charlie is a looker. Seems right at home.

I miss Otis too. I have a picture taken from the old Forum hanging above my computer. It's the same place where this picture of Charlie was taken.

It looks as if our washing machine is sitting on the porch of the old store. I went down to our laundry room and our machine is still there. We have a back up machine. We use a ringer machine and hang our laundry out to dry, even in colder weather. These machines do a great job, much better than the automatics.

I got to see Charlie up close. He's as good as he looks in the photo.

I have a reservation with John to take a photo of my touring in front of his old store as soon as I get the old girl running.

I get to see Otis regularly. It is not mine but a friend of mines. Still as beautiful as the last time all of you saw it. Very interesting car. Frank

That's a lovely 1915 in a great setting, but I think the washing machine is too modern. It looks like mine.
