Late Fall Backyard Nature in New Jersey: Snow
Yesterday’s light rain and sleet changed to snow overnight. Outside became a winter wonderland. Images of trees, red holly berries, and lonely chairs on the deck.
Probably 55 years ago… Found this with some pictures that my grandmother kept in a little book.

New LG Washing Machine/Dryer Vibrations: Troll Family Dance
The new combination LG washing machine/dryer arrive. It was a bit of a challenge getting it into the house, and into the laundry room. Once it was in the laundry room, it was very easy to set-up. It only requires a single outlet (120 V, 15 A), hot & cold water connections, and the drain. The previous electric dryer required higher voltage and current (220 V, 40 A), and an outdoor vent. I did note that during the spin cycle, there was a bit of vibration (actually a lot of vibration until I leveled the unit). The house trolls quickly discovered that it worked as a great dance floor.
