It's finally time to attack the spare rooms!   There are tons of items I must organize, etc all of this Hoover stuff.  There are 3 rooms full of things.  I've decided to finally group all like items, photograph, etc so I'll know what to keep, sell ,give, etc.

  I'll post lots of pics of before, during and after.   For example, I'll gather all of the Handivacs, pixies, Connies, etc.  Last, but certainly not least,  the massive 'array' of Convertibles.  It'll be therapeutic and fun.

Pics to follow very soon.

I'm getting a new carpenter to come and do some work here.  Way past time!

  There are piles and stacks of things.  Yikes !!!!!!! but fun at the same time.

Comments have been made in the past  form others who did work here.  One, "Craig", will never return.  I've heard other workers talking to each other.  Comments like:  "What was THAT"?  Did YOU hear that?  THAT wasn't here a little while ago.   "JESUS",  and,  "What's with the vacuums?  "Don't ask" was the response.  LOLOL

  I guess it's time to shake things up again.

I ran upstairs and took a few quick pics.  DISARRAY!. Everything got pushed into 3 rooms to make way for carpenters, conventioneers, etc Look familiar to anyone?

 Plus, that beautiful, expensive oak is going downstairs soon.

 Pics in a little bit.

This is the room that is next for renovations/restorations.   I  had to put things away, and, I did.

So, now, I'll chip away at this room, and the others.. 

More pics soon............. if you'd like to see the progress and unearthing.

sorting out all of the polishers, then stick vacs, NIB, etc.

 It will be daunting, no doubt, but fun too.

I'm sure I'll find things long-forgotten.

It's making me remember things, events, and people...some good, some great, some not so good.

But,  there should be some things in these rooms that might help others.

  The wiring and windows have all been replaced in this room. I'll be able to hang drywall, and install gorgeous hardwood floors. ...taking something not too nice, and making it beautiful.  I've done that throughout the entire house.

Their food, litterboxes, etc are there.  It's the safe place they can go when construction has been done, or, large crowds of people were here.  During my mini meets, They're be up there, safe.  After dinner, they would come downstairs and mingle. It WAS the 'maid's room', yrs before we lived here.  It's a 20' X 25' room, above the kitchen.  It WILL be restored and used as their apartment plus the 'gallery'.  Hopefully, Mr. Fountain will be here shortly to do the things I cannot.

  I'm getting inspired again.

round up all of the 69s, 70s, 1070s, etc... Fun!!

  Has anyone played "I spy with my little eye" yet?  I know one who has.

little.  WE only had the model 67, ultraflex tools.

  Yes, that wide floor brush is my favorite too.  It gets everything.

Whenever I see them, I get them. They are wonderful.

So are the Convertibles.

Ive found polisher pads for 'another species', plus, I've grouped all of the non-genuine Hoover bags.

  Pics soon..................

they all will be up for grabs!

I discovered all of the "Juniors", etc...

I'm currently removing all of the 69s and 70s.

  Yikes!!!!

Yes, indeed.  I didn't see him there.  He's the original "Inspector 12". My "Murphy" is almost 18 yrs old, and is starting to 'shrink'.  Poor little guy.  A wonderful pet, indeed.  He goes nuts when he sees all of this stuff....gets into everything!!!!!

Yes, that Concept II is a very powerful machine. That's going to Hazleton.  I have a bout 3 Concept IIs.

carpet sweeper, yikes!  and,,,a plastic package with genuine Glamorene polishing pads...original packaging. Charmaine must have left them behind.

  Any interest in these? I'll post pics soon.

and, it's going to rain. So... the plan is:  make a huge stride in that room............. do laundry, go to Sam's Club, then, pizza with friends (Lent, you know).

  I've purchased many plastic totes....ready for the task!

they are.  darn text.. it never types the way you want it to.

laundry 'sets' in various colors.  I'm glad to have one set, actually.

 Getting them upstairs was a feat. People have seen them, and will during some sort of a 'revamped mini meet'. When I invite people, they come.  When they say they will, they actually do.  The get in their cars, drive here, visit, enjoy hospitality, and then, go home.  Even my close, close friend, Tom Anderson (responsible for the washer), said he'd come for the convention.  Due to a family commitment, was unable.  BUT... came the week before.  He was a great help. He said he would... and actually did.  a 6 hour drive. (well, 4.5 for him). :)

  So, yes, another laundry set in a different color (than white), would be nice.

You find fun little things all over.

 Chipping away at things is very good. After it' all gone through,  I'll post pics here and in Supermarket, for items others might like.  Some will be sold, others given free of charge.

 Plastic boxes galore!

find, locate, rediscover things you have.

  So, maybe this Spring, you, too, can open up you bungalow, double-wide, castle, palace, etc  and thin out, sell, buy, trade, etc.

There are some items here others would love to have.  Some of it will go...into homes of grateful collectors.
