One hundred years!
My Great Grand Father made the window sashes for our church, I still
use the tools he used. he also made the doors and most of the
trim inside. Sunday we celebrated one hundred years in
this building.
It was special for me and my family.
This is the best picture I could find on short notice.

Its nice to use the tools your forefathers used, I have a plane one of my ggggggrandfathers used he built furniture in early Melbourne cut wood on the site of one of our large cathedrals and lived in the house of the founder of Melbourne John Batman. I also have and use some of me grandfathers tools. Its a nice feeling to handle family history.

I am coveting my grandfathers work bench and tools. Currently they are in my aunts garage holding stuff of the floor. I should offer her a swap for a nice new table.
Lovely to be so much a part of history.anne-maria.

This was during Frisco days, historic celebration. They have car
shows and music and stuff for the kids.
