It's Like Cheers Only Topless
It's a Wonderful Life
I love the social aspect of going to the movies at the Redford . Things like waiting in line under the marquee to buy tickets, the conversations during the intermission, and the way the theater erupts in laughter at just the right moments.
I think the best part of the night was that the theater handed out bells and told the kids to ring them every time they heard the word "angel".
The Redford theater is very unique. The organ is actually a system of pipes and various other musical instruments. The organ was originally used during the silent movie era.

Lola Good Ears

Lola is our protector. She is primarily responsible for Tinkerbell, but she protects all of us from danger. Danger most often manifests itself in the form of cats and squirrels, and neighbors too.
Tinkerbell
Lola is Tink's dog. Lola is responsible for making sure that Tink knows when there is a threat and that barking should commence. Lola also protects Tinkerbell from clumsy me. Lola is right there to make sure all of us are not in any danger. I will introduce Lola next...
... And Now Winter is Here!
So close and yet so far.
Where Did Summer Go?
This is also the center of the neighborhood. At the end of this street is a large park that the dogs think is theirs. In the evening it is one of the most peaceful places in the city.
The Back Porch After...
You can't see it in this picture, but the facia, soffit, and gutters have all been demo'd. I am not sure how I am going to get the new wood 18 feet in the air. Most likely it will be a job for the neighborhood handyman.
The Back Porch Before...
Once I demo'd the porch I found that the columns holding the porch were constructed no better than if they had used matchsticks and bubble gum. Eventually everything you see was demo'd and filled an entire dumpster.
