One of a Kind...

Whoever said that "necessity" is the mother of invention never met "boredom." Olivia completed a craft project today that definitely was not necessary, but hopefully will become a welcome addition to our basement.

Represented in the new drink table are proof of taxes paid for:
Olivia's '87 Corolla (the best $500 anyone ever spent)
Lauchlin's Jeep Cherokee (Her first SUV and dream car since high school)
Olivia's Mom's Pontiac Grand Am (Tragically hit and destroyed while parked on the street but still visible per Google Earth).
Lauchlin's father's two Cadillac Sedan DeVilles (the Red Ride),
and possibly The Fields Family's '87 Suburban (We don't have seatbelts in "are" truck.)

We have Vici to thank for giving the table to Olivia over five years ago, Ned and Mary Beth for the handicapped parking sign, and many nights on the porch for all of the bottle caps Olivia used on the legs (Not one is a duplicate!).


Total estimated value of table including ad valorem: $2,000.

It is now obvious that Lauchlin is hindering Olivia's exploration of her craft. Lauchlin's out on business and Olivia creates. Shame on you, Lauchlin.

I love it! Glad the sign could be put to good use.

Great, now everyone will think WE stole that sign...
