The bed looks great in the new apartment. This is an old iron bed I found in one of the abandoned buildings by my house. I took it to a body shop in Big Piney to have them sand blast it and paint it white. When I got a mattress for it, we discovered the rails had broken off at some time in the past, and someone had welded them on wrong so the mattress would fall through. My brother came up with a solution and made me a plywood platform in two sections that fit over the railings, and the mattress rests on that. Genius brother!
This is a place for my friends and family to keep track of what I am up to. I share my current artwork, as well as some from the past - and also my photography, including some old photos.

Tuesday
Took a shower in my new place this morning, and I don't have any soap. Oh well, shampoo will work. When I started to get ready for bed Sunday night, I realized I didn't have any clothes - not a stitch! Barrie to the rescue, again!

The rest of the bedroom doesn't look so good!
