I have to say, there are a few very good and knowledgable sewing machine specialists out there.... <br />One is My Sewing Machine Obsession, I think, One is called Vintage Sewing Machines. One guy used to live in Maryland and he retired to Florida. He helped me tremendously with my 301A years ago. First thing to do is find out what kind of manual..... probably part of the 15 types? <br />I have a 15-91 I need to get rewired and running..... It is a nice machine kept indoors. I just need to find time.... <br />Happy TravelsRosemary B❤️https://www.blogger.com/profile/17792395820711368533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-10590108922114588772019-08-28T14:44:05.148-04:002019-08-28T14:44:05.148-04:00I am glad that you have had the time to spend with...I am glad that you have had the time to spend with family. <br />By the way, I have my mother's old Singer sewing machine and need to have it serviced. There is a guy about 40 minutes away that restores old machines and I love his Facebook page and he tells us what he does to the machines back into working order. One of these days I am going to take mine to him to work on it and see if it still works as well as it did when I was sewing on it back in the early 60'sCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10472216688912317585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-25505480370338978892019-08-28T13:30:28.274-04:002019-08-28T13:30:28.274-04:00So Happy for you, Bonnie.

I have been reading a little diary by a family that did the re-enactment of an Oregon Wagon Train in 1959 - the year of Oregon's 100 year statehood centennial. (I was 12 years old in 1959 and remember this event) Yes, hard times coming across the states in a wagon train. Glad to be an Oregonian!!

The first time my mom went out west, when she was in her 70s, she said she had to wonder what the pioneers must have thought when they saw those mountains looming in the distance. They had to be amazed when they got up to and thru them. Your post today reminded me of her.
