Winding The Yarn With A Helper

I love the antiques in all of Jessie Wilcox Smith's illustrations. These two young girls sitting on early ladderback chairs are concentrating with all their might because when your hands are small tasks like this are very hard. I hope you can find a willing friend to help you with your work today. This is another wonderful illustration that is new to me. How do you wind your yarn?

Sunset in Africa

It's almost time to turn off the computer and settle down to watch The Antiques Roadshow on PBS. I thought you'd enjoy seeing the sun go down in Africa. Goodnight. See you in the morning, Rosemary.

I disagree with #550. I would never put my address on the outside of my luggage. Would you? I think this is the first time the author and I don't agree.
