Closing 2007:
Mount Dora Renniger's Antique Show; VoltAmp Medical Battery,
Induction Coil; English Ignition Coil; Victorian Switches; Mejla; A few pictures
of Mejla; And Mejla, Our Bulldog...A few more of Mejla... We would have had a
few more updates in 2007 but she ate the camera. We managed to salvage the
memory stick and the battery though! |
