    For those who have not been following the saga of TDN's latest acquisition over on the 1913 Liberty Nickel thread, here is my reposting of the one Bruce once owned in the past as I photographed it at the Portland Money Show. I'll add a link to the referenced thread below under the photo.

    Turning to another subject area, anyone here have have access to post some high resolution photos that have been coming from Mars as taken by the newly landed Rover Perseverance?

    I had to drive to Honolulu to have my 'VIN' checked even though I had a document from Colorado verifying it; one of several unwritten items to get this station wagon registered and plated - it took two months.

    Now she's legal to hit the streets.

    I saw a Woody wagon at an auto show in Honolulu several years ago, Were you displaying it then?

    No, this is a recent purchase - last Summer/Fall. Edited to add, just saw the other photo of the '49 Olds. Nice wagon too. There's another 'woodie' owner three blocks from me, he's got a 1940 Plymouth and my mechanic has a 1949 Chevy woodie - an odd bird, should be all steel frame but still has wood in many places where the later models to do not. The Chevy is in the paint shop,....so maybe soon we can start an Oahu Woodie Club with our three cars. ;-)

    And just for fun I just put together this little collection of Russian Nesting Dolls inspired by the photo accompanying them that I had taken in Moscow. The two recently acquired sets feature scenes from Moscow and Saint Petersburg respectively and thus serve as pleasant reminders of memorable past travels to both places back when that was still possible pre-COVID.

    Pioneer Church - Chatsworth, CA.
    L.A. Historical Monument 14. Located at 22601 Lassen Street. The Oakwood Memorial Park or Pioneer Church was built in 1903 and is the oldest public building in Chatsworth. It is one of the few New England architectures left in Southern California.

    I never thought that growing old would happen so fast.

    Admittedly it is now Saturday, but today's earthquake didn't arrive until this morning. At 5.3 it didn't even trigger the earthquake alarm on my quake app with its 6.0 threshold, but due to its close proximity we got "all shook up" with a strong jolt and rumbling.

    It toppled vases, shifted hanging pictures and tipped over plates at our place.

    Hard to disagree with either of those. Actually it is not my family pictured but I learned after the fact what the strange sculpture was.

    I am informed it is a depiction of the internet app game “Among Us,”. Apparently during COVID lockdown it became the most popular of internet app games.
