New Fangled Gadget in an Old Fashioned World

We are just an old fashioned couple. . .


guess which one is me

with old fashioned ancestors. . .






surrounded by old fashioned things. . .









My husband has went from collecting old fashioned transistor radios. . .


to buying a new fangled I Pod.

And, I joined Twitter today. I don't know what I am going to Tweet about,  but time will tell. If you belong to Twitter, friend this old fashioned girl, so I won't be so lonesome over there.


Are you old fashioned in a new fangled world?

Transistor Radios

Vintage Thingies Thursday

I'm participating in Vintage Thingies Thursday again, hosted by Colorado Lady. Go visit and see others who are posting their vintage thingies.

I am not the only one in the family that likes to collect. My husband also collects a few things.

Raise your hand if you remember transistor radios.

I loved my little transistor radio when I was young. My friends and I would walk down our little country road listening to our radio. I had a little black one when I was a teenager. It's a wonder that such a little thing as that transistor radio could bring such pleasure.

My husband has a little collection of them. . .


all in a row . . .



on a shelf in the living room. They stand at attention, just waiting for you to put the battery in them and tune in to your favorite station.



Here are my favorite ones out of their leather cases. Aren't they pretty?


This is one thing I don't mind him collecting, because I like them to. They bring back lots of good memories.
