Keys that can be of great help to make your life easier, can also drag you to alien worlds... Keys and the machine behind them can be addictive. Beware of them.
These days I am spending quality time with hubby and various family members. We don’t sit on the fence for too long before we start another “adventure”, as the grandchildren call it. . I hope you find your little adventures this weekend, too. Happy Fence Friday.

I went over to my sister's this morning and found Cleo in her living room where she was quality testing the new deckchair cushion which was lying on the floor. Nobody knows more about the quality of cushions than cats and apparently the quality of this one is good as Cleo had no intention leave it any time soon.
So much new construction in Manhattan. For years and years this lot had a gas station and carwash . . . now it's a condominium! On lower 6th Avenue
The tonal quality of never knowing want, of always being provided for, of being sure that others will clean up her mess: her voice was full of money.
The Kiku exhibit at NYBG was not the largest they have hosted, but there were still lots of beautiful blooms to enjoy

Reminded me of when I used to ski. The mountain often didn't look so high or so steep or so far!
We chose to walk the dirt path just off to the right which takes you through some woods, crosses a little brook and eventually leads you to the Temple of Love and the Rock Garden!
when quality mattered...every dial, every gauge, every switch, every flange, every bracket, every screw, without exception, it all mattered, nothing less than perfection!
Claude M. Cox's original Overland car was developed in the early 1900s by the Standard Wheel Company of Terre Haut, Indiana. The Overland Company was formed in 1903 by Mr. Cox and Charles Minshall but it didn't take off until John North Willys arrived in 1907. Mr. Willys was a New York auto dealer and a major Overland customer. He ordered 500 Overlands and paid a deposit of $10,000. After his product was not delivered, he traveled to Indiana only to find Overland on the point of closure. Wanting to recoup his investment, Willys secured additional credit and reorganized the company. By mid-1908 they were in a position to build a new factory. Production increased and by 1909 the company had moved to Toledo, Ohio. Willys eventually became president of the company.
From 1910 to 1914, the company produced only four-cylinder models and they were all right-hand drive. (The company began using left-hand drive in 1915). In 1914, Overland was the second-largest producer of cars in the US, behind only Ford. While the Model T appealed to the masses, the Overland was an upmarket model selling for approximately twice the cost of a T. The Overland was more spacious, more powerful, and larger than the FOrd and its four-cylinder engine had separately cast cylinder jugs. An electric starter was available as a $125 option in 1914.
Overland built a quality automobile that was advanced for its time. The early models had a removable ignition plug that prevents auto theft.
During the 1920s, Willys-Overland produced the Willys Knight, which was powered by the sleeve valve engine designed by Indiana native Charles Knight. During World War II, Willys produced the Jeep. Several modern Jeep models pay homage to their Overland roots with the name of their top models wearing the 'Overland' nameplate.

The current problem wth Oregon's fire is less about the burning and more about the smoke. Portland has the worst air quality of any city of the world right now.
