'Nother one



Here is second favorite collectible from my Llardo group. I call it "The Old Grandfather" I don't believe that is the correct name but I like it. Notice the baby's intent it to give the mustache a yank and is being told "NO".

Don't forget that you can click on the picture to make it larger.

I like this one too, but not as well as the one from yesterday. I've seen these figurines in stores and thought how nice they would be to collect, but guess why I never got one of them. Wow! They are expensive.

Lily's sad cause she had a catapillar she rescued from a spider... she said it was her pet... then Baby (her dog) ate it. Now, she says she hates Baby. So sad! She's crying saying she really misses her catapillar.

Charlotte: The Llardo are really expensive. The "Flight to Egypt" is one I never expected to own. I just thought it was so beautiful that I had to take Ken to the mall to see it. NEVER expecting that he would purchase it for a gift for me. A HUGE SURPRISE and very welcome. "The Old Grandpa" is one we found in an antique store in Tucson. I enjoy them both. Especially when they are not cover with dust.

Beth: Poor Lily

I see you haven't posted anything new in a few days. I'm thinkin' you're probably gardening. Better get it done before it gets too hot. Those days are coming.
Don't work too hard.
