WOW Finally my Tonelli Design Strata Desk from Italy is HERE!

A very long wait from March 2, but so worth it!

When I found this DREAM desk Strata by Tonelli Design in Italy, it made me search for a USA connection.

Sure enough UltraModern could handle that!

It had to be shipped all the way from Italy and of course there had to be a FULL order for making it worthwhile.
Speckie-–irl is inspecting it...

But this morning at 10:50 AM we got our truck delivery with the heavy 80 kg/176 lb plus the added weight of pallet and crate.
This photo shows the removed crate...

This was the picture that made me fall in love with it... from the above link at the top.

Perfect ergonomics!

FB Page Tonelli Design does show the special structural glue, used for the welded glass parts!

It looks like a dream...

Quite an upgrade from June 2013, when we just had remodeled our office.

This old PC crashed in August of 2015 and we replaced it with an Apple.

So my Summer started off perfect; even if the weather was a bit rainy.

Perfect for getting the office ready, cleaning it out and receiving my new treasure.

Hope you like it too.

Thanks for your visit and comments!

Surprise Clematis Josephine - Bird Poop GIFT

Already inside the greenhouse, on March 29, this new Surprise Clematis 'Josephine' was blooming.

We never purchased it so it must be another gift from some bird...

It sure is a lovely one with its very double center!

Do you love Clematis?

Thanks for your visit.

Happy Father's Day to my Father-in-law in Heaven

Guess I have seen my Father-in-law when I was a teenager, going to Church in Horst, The Netherlands but I never officially met him. Sad, as I would have loved to meet him in person! He passed away on Friday, April 21, 1967 when I was only 16 years old.

On Sunday, August 15, 1920 this photo was taken of my Father-in-law.

A very handsome young man he was!

Husband Pieter always told me that his Dad was a kind of a philosopher...

Even I can remember those kind of shirt collars, as my Dad also wore them.

They got buttoned on.

Visible is his tie pin, which was very common at that time.

Also a pocket square.

One more photo of my Father-in-law, wearing a wool fedora hat. 

The way people dressed up at that time is so different from nowadays' often way too casual dress style.

One day we will meet.

So far I am lucky for still having my own Dad being alive at the age of 96!

Happy Weekend to all and thanks for your visits and comments.
