This is a very old rocking horse I rescued from the garbage about a year ago. My father in law tighten him up for me and I started working on him. Right now he has no hair and he's completely stripped. I have to find new eyes for him, figure out how to give him nice new hair and finish the varnish off. I'll keep you posted on the progress.
This is one of my indulgences. . . The Gary Rail Cats. They are a minor league baseball team and I just love going to the "Steel Yard" and watching them play. Today David & I took Isabella and my dad. He loves baseball but is not able to get out and around much so we thought we'd treat him.
Took a few snapshots of Isabella with the Mascot - Rusty. They were celebrating Christmas in August and the mascot was dressed like Santa Claus. Santa was also there in the park giving a few gifts away to the smaller kids.
When Isabella got home she told her mom "Mommy, I don't want to sit on the snowman's lap" LOL. Her mom told her she didn't have to sit on the snowman's lap or anyone Else's lap if she didn't want to. She didn't sit on Santa's lap but she still got a present.
I will have to work a bit more on this picture but I really like the angle and the "feel" of the picture. I might frame it for him.
