Does this place still exist or are these just some old photos from a book? Lew |

This woman suffered for so many years.... But still, she waited until her hubby died before the garage sale...
A lesson for our wives. |

Just showed these pics to my wife and, unexpectedly, she loved the display.
We have been married for more than 20 years and I never knew that she was an angel. I am seriously considering buying a stuffed hyppopotamus to decorate our living room. |
