A new (to me) bike! She's a 1984 (I think) Schwinn World Tourist. The fenders are a bit banged up, but it was manufactured by Giant which has a stellar reputation. It rides like a dream and has a nifty gear set that lets you shift while coasting. Love it! It takes a place among all my other vintage things. It's newer than my Viking sewing machine (circa the early 70s) and my Dodge van (1982). Sometimes older is better.
Next up: a new cat condo for the cat. We dumpster dived this from some neighbors who were just tossing it. Nothing wrong with it (no smells and just a bit of dirt), and the cat loves it. We've trained her to stand on top of it when she wants to be brushed or petted. She also sometimes sleeps on the first floor and snores very loudly.
I don't have any pictures of all the apple butter I've put up lately. I've got probably 10+ pints of Apple-Cinnamon, Apple-Peach, Apple-Cranberry and just plain Apple Butter. I think I'm done with apples for this year.
