Here's some pics from a recent trip to Momma Hodaddy's place in Ft Myers FLA...

Why there's the Grande Old Dame now, sporting a glass Humuhumu by Turtle...

I swear my father's liquor cabinet hasn't been rooted through for fifteen years or more...

What a surprise to find loads of swinging mid-century party gear and Hawaiiana including random vintage swizzles, napkin sets, giant carved silverware, orchid place-mats, mosaic ashtrays and an assortment of funky trivets including an wooden OMC and a set of ceramic OMC ashtrays in the ever popular "french onion soup bowl style"!

Wanted to tease my pal Vigsy so had to dig into mom's old 33's & 78's. Apparently working at a record shop and radio station had its perks! The soundtracks to my jazzy, easy-listening childhood.

Hey look... an album by God himself.
A Disc Jockey sample to be exact. :wink:

(The first albums of my very own were gifts from Mom: Beatles Red & Blue on Red & Blue vinyl of course. Thanks for letting me grow up at least semi-normal, Ma! I can't imagine what would have become of me if I thought music ended when Frank Sinatra lost his voice!)
