OK first I must say this was my first "real" time shooting videos with this camera. I was concerned about filling up the memory card too quickly and didn't shoot many long videos because of it.

So.... here is a compilation video to give you an idea of some of what there was to see there.

BTW, Yes I know I got the date wrong at the beginning of the video, oops!

I hope you enjoy!
Kevin

Holy Communion

Kevin,
I went to bed disillusioned with the tenor of the group and woke up to a miracle. The miracle is the depth of charactor and compassion you share bring us all together for nurturing and feeling like we really are a part of the group. I doubt I can ever effectively convey my appreciation or awe for the gifts you bring. Thank you for you and for sharing the story of each amazing machine. You're a minx for always keeping us wanting and clammoring for more. Not even a glimpse of the "angle wing" agitator in the Wizard and still not a single pulse from the peforated tub unimatic. The haunting song of the piper keeps calling me back for more. I love you for the being the lovable mascot and capturing the joy of washing.

Kevin, thanks for posting these! I am still giddy from the Maryland wash-in but this is awesome! What a showcase of vintage washers... I hope that someday I will have the privelige of seeing that wonderful collection in person, too!!

Not a problem Paul, just plan on attending the vacuum convention in Minneapolis in September. Fred and Robert are hosting it.

Thank you Kevin, those were all fabulous! It was great to relive the wash-in almost six months later.
