I truly enjoyed your "D" post......Hello Elizabeth. I truly enjoyed your "D" post...and was entranced by all the things you showed us, from R's fabulous (I really to LOVE it...it is in just the style I like most) painting, to that whimsical clock, and the history of your desk. I enlarged a couple of the photos for a better look. What a wonderful desk, and that you wonder who used it in days past....love that little locking door too! <BR/><BR/>And about that clock....I can imagine a child's story written around that clock and the fact that it keeps whatever time it likes...perhaps transporting its owner hither and yon on various adventures through time...Sara at Come Away With Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07677354270954094291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481510413550460157.post-66449825768771581782008-08-15T10:57:00.000-04:002008-08-15T10:57:00.000-04:00It's nice to see "Command Central"!!xoConstanceIt's nice to see "Command Central"!!<BR/>xo<BR/>ConstanceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481510413550460157.post-37792282261955814092008-08-14T14:50:00.000-04:002008-08-14T14:50:00.000-04:00Lovely post.

The clock is very curious, is it called a traveling clock just because it tells time randomly? or because you are supposed to bring it traveling?
