After we bought this house, Errol spent part of a year fixing the inside, cleaning, remodeling, painting, and so on, while I finished up my work at UCLA.
Then in September 2006, I moved here and Errol went back to Los Angeles to continue to work for several more years. He was six years younger than I and wanted to work until at least he was at least 65.
So here I was, lots of things needed to be done outside and all our tools and our wheelbarrow were in Los Angeles. When I discovered this rusty old thing, I sort of fell for it. And I used it for a couple of years.
This year, I made it part of my yard art display. You have now seen the three individual parts - a picture of the full display will follow in another post.
And then I found the cutest rusty thing on one of my fence posts. That will follow soon too.
