Advertisements take too long.

Hope you're having a great day!


Yeah...too bad you can't dump the ad after 3 seconds... but in this
case, there's some nice scenery to see... if you appreciate beautiful
natural scenery.



Putting the clock on display and working in the new library seems ideal,
because it can be restored, it will require less maintenance, and
visitors can see the mechanism.


A friend of mine has a 12 foot stained glass clock hanging on the
ceiling of the entryway to the estate in Higganum, it came from an ole
church there and they cut a 12 foot slit in the side of the place to
slide it in... It doesn't run but it's pretty cool. The house is unique
in several ways, set up like a castle inside, a huge painting of "the
spirit of 76" on one outside wall, 20 feet tall.
