Magnolia Blossom - Whitecroft549 viewsI love Magnolias. Great, huge, pure white flowers. It's a shame that they seem to fall apart so quickly, so it's hard to bring them in the house for a big floral display. (Unless there's some secret that only Southern belles learn, while drinking juleps.) This magnolia bud is in our large tree, Whitecroft, on a hot summer afternoon.Jul 16, 2005

Old Whitecroft Kitchen -- Chase and Marjorie537 viewsGosh, I barely remember when the kitchen looked like this. The black metal (and cane) chairs came from Hawaii. I think Marjorie was trying to prove that she could b taller than Chase -- if she stood on a chair.Jul 14, 2005

Whitecroft -- The Outdoor Pool524 viewsWe haven't been in the outdoor pool since I can remember: my guess is circa 1995 or so. We had the liner changed about three or four years ago, so the water was changed then, but the liner installation was terrible and we never "opened" the pool. It's so gross now that we're at least cleaning it out. Lots of power washing and diluting with fresh, clean water.Jul 10, 2005

Barbara With the Fire Extinguisher3270 viewsThe Chubb man came to do his annual servicing of our fire extinguishers. Several were out of date, and apparently need to be replaced. So he asked if we wanted to set off the old ones so we'd have "experience" with them. Here's Barbara with a wimpy foam extinguisher. Vic, Andy, Tapa, and Emilia all look on.Jul 07, 2005
