    Manikin
    (62 items)

    Years ago when I met Rose ( Antiquerose) we discovered she knew some of my family in Canada and one of them even had a crush on her as teens :-) Yesterday I received this gift of a Grain Elevator like the one next to my family's store in Bounty County it is now a ghost town . The 2nd photo is my families store with grain elevator along side it . I was so surprised to see a package and to find out it was bought at a estate sale from a family member that Rose attended . CW has the best people and I am so grateful for the friends I have made here
    Thank you Rose I love it and Merry Christmas to you and your family xo
    There is a link to my former post about Canada and my families town below
    The 4th photo of Grain Elevator was taken by another friend in Canada I call Bro ( Walksoftly) when he went to see my cousins . This is in Conquest . I have been blessed with friends in Canada Rose, Walksofty, and Phil that have kept me in contact with family there .

      Rose is a fine friend to give this to you and we appreciate your fine comments of gratitude. This year she offered me a fine glass vase which I turned down because of lack of room. Rose is a gem !~
