Glass Chatroom Board

Good day all, long time since I have been here. Thank you for the birthday wishes. As you probably know, I spend all my time (too much of it) working on the database for the Early American Pattern Glass Society. It is good to see a few of you still active here.

Well thank you for remembering me Julie; love the cupcakes. And to think with all the world traveling you have been doing, you had time to make me cup cakes! 🙂

Well, thank you everyone for the birthday wishes. I have not been here for quite some time, but I see many of you over on Facebook in various places. Like Gail Morrison Curley, I spend most of my time on the Early American Pattern Glass Society Facebook page. I have been working helping to organize and catalog the many different patterns posted. Its been a lot of work but also a lot of fun. Once again, thank you for the birthday wishes and I will have to stop by more often and check in on all of you.
Don 🙂

Back from the wedding, exhausted.

Everyone: The Welcome to Glass Chat part will not work any more. The server this was on died. I have not had time to find another place to post it. Wait, I do not even have access to the back up to it at the moment as my computer at home has a dead power supply. (happened while in Seattle) So for the foreseeable future, I don't think it is going to come back. My apologies.

***Don

Well, Hello from Seattle. Youngest daughter is having her wedding tomorrow, we are busy helping stage lights, food, decorations and such.Traffic here is frightening for this country bumpkin! LOL

***Don

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHELSEA BLUE!!!!!

**Don

Good Morning

Jim L......something must be wrong with the server where the "Welcome to Glass Chat" is stored. I will look into it and try to find out what is wrong. However, it may take awhile. 🙂

***Don

Good Morning

Julie......so sorry to hear of your loss. Words cannot really express how we all wish we could help.

I hope everyone else is doing well.

***Don

Good Evening

Shelly......I think you compote is National Glass #500/The Prize. You should find a similar one listed in the Compote Album K-Z over on the EAPGS Facebook page. May I use your picture for the album?

Continues very hot and dry here. I just added a Northwood Pagoda (aka: Chrysanthemum Sprig) tooth pick in blue to my collection. It even has the Northwood signature in script on the bottom. It looks much better in person that this picture of the seller's.

***Don

GOOD MORNING

Continues very hot here as well.

Julie....So sorry to hear of your family crisis. Prayers and best wishes for all of you.

Working cataloging many of the pictures that have been posted over the years on the Facebook EAPGS page. This project has sort of swallowed me up and keeps me tied to the computer.

***Don

Good Day

Laura returns tomorrow from visiting the new grand baby. The older two grand daughters are suppose to return from Durango this weekend as well, so thing will get back to "normal" around here. I did get some jobs around the house done, but not near as many as I planned. lol

Hope everyone had a great 4th. I had a nervous, crazy dog and was so glad when the neighbors finally stopped their fireworks!

***Don

Good Morning

Taking a break from mowing. Did not cool off much last night, so even early outside its hot.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JULIE!!!!
Alright, I'm a little late, but I mean well.

Swimming ends for the Grand Daughters tomorrow. Then they are suppose to go visit the other Grandparents. Laura is off to San Diego to visit our new grand daughter Bea again. So, I get to be by myself and do all those projects I have been putting off. (Yeah, right!)

If I don't stop back before July 4, everyone have a safe and sane time.

***Don

Good Day

Air has been very smokey for the last week from several fires. Both are about 100 miles from me in opposite directions, but seems we now somehow get smoke from both of them! The one to the north of me has destroyed some homes and other structures, which just adds to the sadness.

Finished the first 2 week session of swim lessons for the grand daughters. It is much easier this year as they are now both big enough to get their hair washed, combed and braided by themselves!

I hope everyone is doing well.

***Don

Good Morning;

I have returned from an 8 day adventure to the East Coast. Baltimore, DC. Gettysburg, N. Virginia and around. Saw a lot of great sights, met with family and played cards. What could be better? Was so busy couldn't even work in any glass hunting. Would have liked to meet Nancy P, but it was not to be. Still, very glad to be home and trying to get back into a routine. Condolences to those on the board who have lost loved ones. Condolences to Orlando and our nation for another senseless tragedy.

***Don

Good Morning

Tooling around the East Coast. Weather is beautiful. Far too many things to do and see and relatives to meet. I don't even know if there will be any time to go glass hunting!

@jerseystar.. Nancy, It looks like there is no way I am going to be able to meet up with you. So sorry, it would have been great fun!

***Don

Good Day

Been busy mowing again before I head to the east coast. I see all the talk about windows 10. I am still using the dinosaur of XP! The day is coming I will have to replace this system, not sure what I will do when that happens. lol

Birthday wishes if I have missed anyone lately. Get well wishes to those recovering. Have a great day everyone.

***Don

Good Morning

Nursery School is over for the summer. Now to try to do all those things I claim I am going to do. lol I seem to have developed a collection of US Glass #15,016 aka: Millard. Here is a picture of a plate I just received. I also have a 7, 8, & 9 inch bowls.
***Don

Good Morning

Beat you Carl; our temp this morning is 43 degrees! Unusually cold for May here in NM. Tomorrow is last day of Nursery School. I am tired this year, looking forward to it!

***Don

Good Day

Very cool here today as well. I have several pieces of Millard ruby stained glass in transit. So hoping they arrive without any tinkling sound.
***Don

Good Morning

Last week of Nursery School, going to be a busy summer with several cross country trips necessary. Hope everyone is well.

Reen....speedy recovery. 🙂

***Don

Good Morning:

Thank you very much for all the birthday wishes. My birthday present to me. Northwood blue opal paneled Holly water set. The pitcher does not have the gold gilding, but I really don't mind.!

Good Morning

Thank you for the birthday wishes. My birthday present just arrived, the blue opal Northwood holly pitcher. I shook the box and there is no rattling or tinkling sound, so I am optimistic it made it in one piece. Maybe I will have a picture by tomorrow.

***Don

Good Morning

Hay ride today with the Nursery School, weather looks perfect!

***Don

Good Morning

I received an early morning note from Gail today; she is fine as far as storms and such. Gail and her sister all off to Tulsa for a medical procedure. It continues cool here, but is suppose to start heating up fast. It has been nice not to have to get the swamp cooler working again.......just yet.

***Don

Good Morning

***Don

Good Day

It also remains cool here in New Mexico. We are taking the nursery school children on our usual spring hay ride on Wednesday, hope it warms up a little by then.

We had a great Mother's Day. The grand daughter's got to spend the night on Saturday and Laura was thrilled to have them. Best Mother's Day present.

***Don

Good Morning

Driveway is MUCH better. Now I am almost hoping for a rain to help consolidate and pack the gravel. 🙂

I have a Northwood blue opalescent Holly pattern water pitcher on order. I have been wanting one for years to go with the tumblers I have had. I am hoping it will be a great water set once I get it put together. I will post pictures if/when it arrives.

***Don

Good Morning

HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY REEN!!!!

I get to play in the dirt today. I had 8 large loads of "pit run" sand & gravel spread on my drive way. They were suppose to level it so we could use the drive way. Their "level" consisted of the large loader making 1 pass up and back. I can barely drive on it and now it is like a roller coaster. So my farmer friend says I should take his tractor and blade and "play around with it". We will see what happens. lol

***Don

Good Day

Getting closer to the end of Nursery School for another year, only 2.5 weeks left. I will be traveling in June to Pennsylvania & Virginia to see family. First time in about 22 years, so I guess I'm due. My youngest daughter is getting married in September, so we have a junket to Seattle to make as well. Laura is also going to go see the new grand daughter in July. I guess we will keep South West airlines in business for awhile. You can see we are a very "close" family. lol

***Don

Jim and everyone else. Here is a picture looking out my south facing windows. (remember, I live in a passive solar adobe house). I wanted to show what I mean when I say I am mowing the weeds. In the distance next to the tracks is a rail road tie corner post, next to it are "Chimiso bushes or 4 wing salt brush."(Atriplex canescens) All my property would look like that if I didn't keep them mowed down. Around 10 years ago I ignored the mowing for a year or two and the bushes nearly took over. A fire along the rail road track that burned into my property convinced me it was better to keep the bushes mowed down. Growing in with them is some Buffalo Grass, bind weed, and Pig weed. (another one not to ignore, it can grow 6 feet tall. So to me the place looks much better and I get my exercise for the summer. 🙂

Good Day

Jim.....no, they are weeds. I have around 2.5 acres around the house. I keep mowed down whatever tries to grow. So there are Chamisa bushes (aka 4 wing salt brush), bind weed, wild marigolds, pig weed (don't let it get started, will grow to over 6 feet tall) and a bunch of other stuff that grows without being watered. Oh, there is a little salt grass and buffalo grass in places. But when you cut it all down, it still looks green without being too shaggy. lol And the exercise is always a benefit! Now remember, this is just what grows on its own, even in a "desert". If I were to water this, I would be overrun in no time at all.
*** Don

Good Morning

Hope everyone is doing well. Had to start mowing the yard, weeds were growing far too fast and high! So next several days that is probably on the agenda.

***Don

Good Day

Just checking in. Took the Nursery School kids to the college green house to look at flowers. It was super packed with flowers of all kinds and was quite a sight. They each got to take a very large zinnia home to plant. There was even time afterwards to have our snack and play on the playground. Weather was great and made for a great outing.

I just recently bought a King #500 blue spooner and sugar bowl sans lid. Didn't cost much and most of it was covered by the eBay Bucks rebate I had received. But I don't think there will be much of an eBay Bucks next quarter since I have bought next to nothing lately.

***Don

Good Morning

Another cold front moving in. Calling for possibly heavy snow in the northern NM and southern Colorado mountains for the next several days. As is usually the case here in Polvadera, we will just get high winds from the storm.

I hope everyone is doing well, have a great weekend.

***Don

Good Day

Hope all is well with everyone here. I check the board on occasion, but I really don't have much to contribute. I haven't even bid on something over on eBay for over a month. The glass drought continues. LOL

Don

Good Morning

Cold, spitting frozen stuff at us! Spring can be such a challenge!

@Shelly......I am now certain you dish was made by Co-Operative Flint Glass Company; I just have not tracked down the pattern yet. I found several #101(AKA Crossed Fern) dishes that have that identical shape.

***Don

Oh Julie, bad choice of words there. 🙂

@Shelly......I really hope you will post the honey to the EAPGS Facebook page. But if not, may I copy your photo to put in the photo album we are making?

Hope everyone is doing fine. Gail sent me a scary picture of the tornadoes that were in her area.

***Don

Good Morning

Cold and windy here, again! But at least we don't have the winds that spin like Gail does!

@Shelly, I agree, it would probably have been called a "honey dish". I have been through 100s of butter dishes thus far, I have not seen one like yours. I have seen a similar lacy edge on Co-Operative Flint Glass Co. #44 cake stand. Post it over on the Facebook EAPG page, maybe someone will know what it is. I can then add it to the butter/honey dish album.

It has been a quiet Spring Break here as the grand daughters are visiting the other grandparents in Durango. They will be back tomorrow and then Saturday is Niki's birthday!

Still very quiet on the glass front for me here. 🙁

***Don

Good Morning

Very cool and windy today. Actually, winds are almost a constant thing this time of year. I haven't stopped by for awhile. As Gail noted, I have been busy on the EAPGS Facebook page. I am working to organize and label the pictures posted over the years of different butter dishes right now. There are hundreds! It is taking a lot longer than I anticipated, but will be a great resource for everyone when I get finished. I hope all is well with all of you.

***Don

Good Morning
Really fighting the allergies lately. Between the strong winds blowing in everything imaginable, and needing to mow some of the weeds around here, I am hardly able to breath today.
I guess I am becoming a more "discriminating" glass buyer. I bought my first piece, a small covered compote in beaded grape pattern off eBay yesterday. My history shows my last purchase was 3 months ago. The glass drought continues.

***Don

Good Day:
Very windy yesterday and today. Allergies are really being stirred up from all the wind. We managed to have our egg hunt with the nursery school children, but it wasn't easy with all the wind.

***Don

Good Morning

Warm and windy here. Laura is back from visiting the new grand daughter. Today she and I will share grand parent duty as both the grand daughters that live here are home sick. So Laura will stay with them this morning and I will come by after Nursery School ends.

Carl.....you have certainly been showing some great carnival glass lately.

***Don

Good Day

Nice carnival glass piece, as usual Carl.

@gabla George, I am going to assume you left off either 6 or 7 from your post.:-)

All is well here. Laura is off to see the new grand baby tomorrow. I have the other two grand daughters through Saturday as their parents are in Pittsburgh.

I have not even seen hardly any glass of interest to bid on on eBay lately. It does save me money though!!

***Don

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GEORGE!!!!

I always love the fun things you can dig up on the internet.

Off to play cards and games with the grand daughters.

***Don

Good Morning

Well, I received a call at 3AM telling us our oldest daughter had given birth to her first; a little girl. So Laura and I are grandparents again.

***Don

Ho, hum, the warm and mild weather just continues here.

Hope everyone in the storm path is doing alright.

***Don

Good Morning

***Don

Good Day

Jim would be much easier to write. 🙂

George....."where in the L it lands"! Nothing as good as a bad pun.

I have a Millard ruby stained cake stand that is suppose to arrive today, tomorrow. If it makes it in one piece, will have "show & tell" soon.

***Don

Good Morning

Our streak of record setting high temperatures continues. Needing the air conditioner in the car in the PM. So those of you cold and snowy; come visit. 🙂

Good Day

Well, I hope everyone knows not to open an email that is supposedly from me. I have changed pass words and updated security settings, let's see if it helps any. @#$!! Hackers anyway.

@Julie....I remember over a month ago I got a similar email supposedly from you. When I clicked on it it took me to some weight loss page. Hmm

***Don

Well, it appears my email has been hacked somehow. So do not open any email that is supposedly from me. Going through the change pass word and stuff now.

Thanks everyone.

Good Morning

@baabaamason, I have no idea what is going on. I know I didn't send any such message. Thanks for letting me know, I will see if I can find anything.

***Don

Good Morning

Julie.....beautiful glass!

We seem to be sending the cold air Carl's way. A high pressure dome is sitting over New Mexico, forcing colder air around us. We are forecast for close to 70 today.

***Don

Jim L........Sure, he has a "Barn" full of glass!!!!! LOL

Su-su, is that you?

Lynn, so sorry to hear of your father's passing. He was admired by us here and will be greatly missed. Thank you so much for letting us know.

***Don

Good Day

We have added 5 new 2.5 years olds to Nursery School in order to remain operational. Boy, they are so much more work than the ones that are a little older! Good thing we only operate on MWF, I have a day in between to rest up! Nothing much glass related has been happening lately, just can't find anything of interest on eBay.

Hi to everyone!

***Don

Good Morning

Well, it was 75 on Sunday. Monday all day we had terrible winds. Last night it snowed about an inch. Glad the Ground Hog says winter is over. 🙂

Good Morning

***Don

Good Morning

My son just got out of the DC area yesterday in time. One of my Nursery School students was having a quick trip to visit grand ma in Newark, suppose to come back Sunday; I think he may get to stay at grandma's a little longer. 🙂

Weather here is warm and sunny. Snow still covers the mountain peaks around and a little is still on the N side of the house. But most of our 16" snow from Christmas is mostly gone. 🙂

***Don

Good Morning

Carl.....Fantastic find on your part. George has a great idea there. I also have one of those Northwood Carnival Glass by C. Burns books. Think I will make a copy of the photo and add it to the book. 🙂

***Don

Good Morning

***Don

Good Morning

We have been having sunny weather the last few days! House warms up nicely like it is suppose to and heat carries through the night. The 16" snow is mostly all melted, only some remains on the north side of everything. Hope everyone has a great day.

***Don

Good Morning

Son and his family are going home today. It has been over a week since the city sewer backed up into the basement and made "a mess". Our weather is finally calling for some days of sunshine.....it is about time.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KELLI

Good Morning

It snowed another 3 inches last night! There are several more small storms predicted for the remainder of the week. Looks like this is going to be a snowy winter for us. Grand daughters went back to school today, the family is still staying with us. They are hoping to have the basement cleaned this week.

***Don

Good Morning

We still have several inches of the 14" + snow remaining on the ground. Growing very tired of this snow mess. Nursery school resumes on Wednesday, so I guess the "vacation" is over.

***Don

Good Morning

***Don

Good Morning

I had a visit from one of the members of the Facebook EAPG (Early American Pattern Glass) group. Was great fun to show a collection to someone who understands what it takes to put it all together. We had a great time talking glass.

I now have my son Max and his family staying with us for ??? They woke up yesterday to backed up plumbing in the basement. Plumbers worked 5 hours yesterday, have still not found the problem.

Happy birthday to Mary B and Lainey.

***Don

Good Morning

Snowed all day yesterday, our total accumulation out of this storm was about 16". We could not get out the long driveway to the main road (which was totally snow covered as well) so son Max came in his 4x4 pickup. We helped several neighbors get unstuck from all the snow. Made tracks back and forth on the driveway so I could get the car out. We should be able to get Kris and Terra to the airport this afternoon. Since we so seldom get this much snow, everything just sort of ground to a halt yesterday. We did take time to build snowmen, snow forts and toboggan off the side of the irrigation ditch.

***Don

Good Morning

Well, we have quite the surprise. It started snowing yesterday around noon. It has snowed off and on since then. I went outside a little while ago and measured 10" on top of the car! I think with what fell earlier, we have maybe received around 12". That is a lot of snow for here. Terra-Dawn and Kris are scheduled to leave tomorrow evening, I think roads will be cleared by then. So for now we will eat, play some games and hope the sun comes out soon.

***Don

Good Morning

Exhausting weekend of Christmas activities/parties. Think I will do some house cleaning today just to rest up. 🙂

***Don

Good Morning

Air temperatures have still been on the cool side here, but bright and sunny. So, the passive solar adobe has been nice and warm/hot. Today is the last day of Nursery School till after New Years. We sing some Christmas songs and have a pot-luck lunch with the members. Always a great time.

My youngest daughter Carrie arrives in Albuquerque later today. Her fiance has family there so they will be there for awhile. My other daughter Terra Dawn arrives on Christmas eve. Son Max and family will be back from Durango where other Grandparents live, so Christmas Day is shaping up to be very busy!

***Don

Good Morning

***Don

Good Morning

Another fast moving storm just crossed the state. We currently have 40 mph winds, forecast for even higher today as front leaves. High for the next few days not suppose to pass 32; I hope they are wrong on that. 🙂

***Don

Good Morning

Cold front moved through. Albuquerque got some snow accumulation. We got rain/sleet here. It is suppose to turn very cold by Tuesday. I was really enjoying the warm temperatures we had a few days ago. 🙂

***Don

Good Morning

Shelly, funny you should ask. Hauled a load to Santa Fe Tuesday. Had problems with the truck, it took us forever to get it corrected. Santa Fe round trip usually takes 8 hours, this one was 14 hours! I was tired yesterday.

I have not been able to find any glass of interest lately. I know now that I have many pieces I am more selective. But it also seems there is mostly the same thing over and over on eBay. I did enjoy watching Carl's sales.

Bob....good to see you back. Say hi to Bin & the crew.

***Don

Good Morning

***Don

Good Morning

***Don

Good Morning

I believe I had talked about the Socorro Public Schools "Declamation" contest. Children memorize and perform a poem or part of a story. Well, my two grand daughters each won first place in the Final county contest. Niki did Madeline in the serious poetry division and Lynn did The Lorax in serious prose. Grandpa was very impressed with their work and performance. 🙂

Working on the guest bathroom since the kids will be back for Christmas. Now how/why did I put this off all summer and only start now?

***Don

Good Morning

***Don

Good Morning

Up very early today, sometimes the sleep just stops when it want to.

I am most annoyed with eBay. I ordered a tv series dvd set for my mother in law. Waited the 2 week shipping time the seller had allowed himself, and still nothing. Put in a request through eBay about it, and was told the order had been "lost" but would ship soon. It finally did ship, was a drop shipment from another online dvd sales place; but was missing one season. Had to put in another request and after much more waiting it arrived. This total sale took over a month.
I am annoyed with eBay because once I put in the request, the transaction disappeared from my Orders List. It is no where to be found. I cannot leave feedback to let others know how slow this order was. I cannot even look at the order to know how much it cost or when it was first ordered!!!

Julie.....I am confused. Your avatar has you with blond hair, yet the picture you posted of yourself on the swing has you as a brunette. 🙂 🙂

***Don

Good Morning

Julie.....looking great, as always. 🙂

***Don

Good Morning

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE

We had our family get together last Saturday. So I guess I will play on the computer, watch the parade and relax. Have a great day all!

***Don

Good Morning

Back from a trip to Santa Fe with the hay truck. Weather here has been very nice but a cold snap with freezing rain is now forecast for after Thanksgiving. We had our Thanksgiving celebration last Saturday, so I guess tomorrow we will just watch tv and not worry about cooking or over eating!!!

***Don

Carl....same dish?

Good Morning

Up early today, not sure why.

Julie....that is quite the bowl at quite the price. Seller didn't seem to feel it needed much description. I will be interested to see what Carl has to say about it.

***Don

Good Morning

Weather continues very nice. We are having an early Thanksgiving today with son Max, his family and inlaws. So we are making the stuffing and mashed potatoes today.

***Don

Good Morning

A really wild storm passed through yesterday. Winds over 60 mph for awhile. We only ended up with a little rain, but many portions of the state have snow and blizzard conditions. The wind was so strong at the gas station I was at, it tore large sections of the outside roof facing off while I was filling up. I was safe under the roof, but outside big chunks of metal hitting the ground and some cars. The storm is just now leaving, winds are high again.

***Don

Good Morning

Still to be beautiful weather today, then changes in sight with at least possibility of "snow". Really? We shall see.

***Don

Good Morning

Well, my grand daughters are both in the district Declamation today; I am sure they will do well. They both have their pieces well memorized and speak loud and with inflection.

We are having a very mild Fall thus far. It could stay this way through Christmas but the skiers would be very distressed.

I have not found much glass of interest lately. But I did buy this, just because I thought it was cute. A Northwood Ivy Scroll creamer.

Good Morning

***Don

Good Morning

***Don

Well, didn't go to Santa Fe after all. It was snowing there this morning, so will try for Saturday. It worked out well we didn't go. I was able to be a judge at the declamation contest at the local elementary school. Declamation has the children memorize a poem or story and then present it. Props are allowed and sometimes the presentations are great. My children and grand children have all participated in this, I had a great time as a judge. Lynn & Niki (my grand daughters) attend a different elementary than the one I was judge at. 🙂

***Don

Good Morning

Well, off to Santa Fe with the hay truck again. We had a hard frost two days ago, most chile and tomato plants are looking poorly. It looks like another hard frost last night, but we have not yet fallen to 32 degrees. It has snowed in the northern mountains, the ski people are getting excited already!

***Don

Good Morning

Could we as a country just pick one time and leave it alone? I see no need, reason or whim for Daylight Savings Time and the accompanying moving of the clock. I do know it really messes with my Nursery School children's systems for about a week!

Fenton.....Looking at her hand while at the sea shore. Yep, that's probably how it got named.

I have decided I like Tarentum Glass Company's pattern called Victoria. I have a berry set already. Here is a marriage I created. Victoria lid on a Riverside #492/Empress base. This will have to do until I find the correct base.

Good Morning

The rain has moved out, it was really cool last night. There is frost on the car roof, but plants seem to have survived so far. There is a large chile field very close to my house. It fronts up against the river wooded area. For the last month there have been elk in there off and on, grazing on chile. Yesterday, there were 7 does in the field and and two young bucks just happily eating away.

Here us a picture of the US Glass #15,119 aka Palm Beach creamer and spooner that have come to live with me. This just means now I will be looking for an affordable sugar and butter dish. 🙂

***Don

Shelly....eBay had some sort of major problem for awhile yesterday. Half of my watched items either disappeared or were listed as ended. Two items I was bidding on disappeared, then later came back. It looks like today things are "back to normal".

Good Morning

We had a pumpkin hunt scheduled for Nursery School. This is similar to an egg hunt, except everyone finds a pumpkin for Halloween. Well, it is raining. Not hard, but enough to stop our hunt. So we are going to have the pumpkins at school, put them throughout the Church area and still find a pumpkin.

I just received a blue opalescent Palm Springs creamer and spooner. I will try to post a picture in the next few days.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to all the recent birthday people.

***Don

Good Morning

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GAIL!!!!!!

George.....When I visited my daughter Carrie in Seattle, we took a day trip to Snoqualmie. Great view and lots of fun. Rode the train that goes right to the falls (looked like we would fall in). Then drove back to do tour from the other side. Lots of fun.

***Don

Julie.....sorry for your loss. I am glad you had family near.

Carl.....some very nice pieces you have been "finding". congratulations

***Don
