There will be a few captions, but where these are redundant with others' previous pictures posted, no caption will appear.

 

First up, a group of us out to lunch on Thursday at a pretty good Mexican place near the hotel, suggested by Tania

This one and next one: Raffle machines, and For Sale machines. I could KICK myself for not getting a picture of the gorgeous Electrolux refurbished at the factory that was raffled off. It was a stunning machine - repainted in a great speckled black and white. I forget who won it....Rick Asquith? John Zeigenhagen?

The bizarre Singer-like Lewyt, among the raffle machines. I loved the squared-off top of the flowered bag. Very disco-70's, an era that I think I am still caught in (!) [sorry for ending in a preposition]

The rarely-seen Bambi by RCA Whirlpool. Billy Lipman said he has one that has some slight variations from this one. This was fascinating. I wish I had taken more pictures of this.....

On to Duane's on Friday. It rained cats, dogs, buffalos, sheep and John Deere tractors on the way there. It was a muddy mess, but it started out nice.

OK....here's more. This one and the next one....the unique Cana-Vac, with the retractable hose feature. We all loved this. In the 2nd shot, Scott is taking it out for a spin.

On to Duane's wonderful store in Mequon, where we maniacs managed not to tear the place down to the ground. This machine was a stunner...an Ira Lee. This was a first siteing (sp?) for me, though I know that others have seen one before. One strange-looking thing!
