Anson worked in Weston at the Moffat Stove Works.
Anson was born in Lyn, Ontario where his father
was a blacksmith who became a small manufacturer
of agricultural equipment, specializing in land rollers.
Likely while in Lyn Anson worked for his father.
In 1907 Anson moved to Weston where he worked
for the Moffat Stove Company on Dennison Road.
In Weston he married Nettie Brookman of Fultonville,
New York. They had a daughter Florence who died
as a teenager.
In 1920 Anson moved to Fultonville, NY. He owned and
operated a car repair garage with Nettie's sister's husband
in the next village, Fonda, NY. After his wife and daughter died Anson sold his interest in the garage and moved back
to Ontario. He died in Brockville in 1960 and is buried
in Lyn, Ontario where he was born.

Gilian is a Goldie-inspired and is actually customised from EBL face plates. She is sandwiched between 2 very different BLs - one with far glancing eyes and one without. But I still don't see how the EBL face mold is supposed to be the same as BL face mold. There is a subtle difference at the cheeks. The BL cheeks seem more 'poofy' or rounder.

Well what caught my eye first off was the terribly poor design and construction of the cabin. Notice the seams all lined up in the center. Maybe this was once half this size and they built on and that is where the connection was made. But still. And they sure needed some black paper and strips on the outside. Man the wind must have blown right through that place. On a windy day, you wouldn't be able to light a candle.

uh-oh. Goose seems to have found out that there's another blonde BL coming. Don't worry sweetie. . . I won't love you any less.
And heh, Goose is "almost legal" now.
Sorry, Wendy (SM), but this little girl has just leapfrogged to the "favorite blonde" spot.
I mean, she was cute before but now that her hair is shaping up she's even cuter <3
G: It's discrimination! Shiny BLs have rights too!
Me: Uh, sweetie?
G: We'll take you to court! We'll sue you for our right to go boring places like where you work!
Me: You finished?
G: For the *moment*.
Me: You seem to have forgotten that Fitz came last week. She's shiny. REALLY shiny. In fact, other than Polka, who just came...everybody just came in order of how they were hanging out on the shelf. Also, Spin and Eido didn't come. They're matte.
Goose: Oh. Uhm, never mind then. Carry on.
Me: Uh huh.
G: Wait, I get it! You're prejudiced against BLONDES!
Me: *headdesk*

My first blondie arrived home in the middle of December after a very long trip because of Spanish customs. These are old pics, I'm a bit offline lately.
Thank you Danielle for letting me adopt her ;)

Mi primera rubia llegó a casa a mediados de diciembre, después de un largo y tormentoso viaje gracias a nuestra amiga la aduana.
A cute little Summer colorful dress for the Silkstone Ladies:)

This photographs shows a group of mostly men - there are a couple of women in the middle - aboard a ship in their Sunday best. It's probably a steamer and they are taking a pleasure cruise.
I would date this photograph at around 1910.

Otra vez Ikea
Hace tiempo que lo tengo pero hasta hoy no ha estado repleto de fotos y postales.
Desde que tengo cámaras digitales no he impreso ni una foto, eso si tengo montañas de cds llenos de ellas. Cuando vuelva a tener vida propia me he propuesto ir imprimiendolas poco a poco y hacerme un album en condiciones.
