Yet another, lovely spring scene captured by Sue Webb Yesterday, Russ pointed out to me this is suppose to be a blog about radios. (Just a sec--got another nice spring bulb shot I wanted to add.) So, I--like I always do-- took a moment to consider his point.
I decided there happened to be a long-shot chance he might be correct, thusly...
If perfectionists were awarded medals, Russ would have stole the gold.
My hub's talent for fixing things is amazing. In the thirty-plus years we have been wed--I find it unbelievable that only on an extremely rare occasion have I ever been able to break something, he couldn't fix. This is outstanding for one simple reason: I can break almost anything. I don't even need to touch it, I can just look at it. Computers, toasters, microwaves, cars, boats, you name it. I can break it. No brag, just fact. With this knowledge, I'm sure you'll understand why I can recommend his work, If it's broke--if anyone can fix it--he can.
This is particularly true in the field of electronics. He has dazzled me with his ability to "Breathe New Life Into Old Radios" many times; that's what inspired our catch phrase. Rarely, does he deem any grande dame beyond hope. A bit of plastic surgery here, a rewound cap there. What sets him apart from nearly all others: He can not only fix the electronics of the old radios (every radio in the Old Radio Museum works because of his efforts); but he can renovate the cabinetry with the eye of an artist.
On this website, we have a Before and After page, It isn't a page that gets many hits, but I would highly recommend clicking on this link. (It's a slide show.)

(It's noteworthy: Not only did Russ restore these old radios, he made every one work!)
So......there it is. I wanted everyone to know what an excellent job Russ does. (He wouldn't tell you; he's too shy.) But, I'm not!
Hope you'll think of Russ' Old Radio Repair the next time you need/or want an old radio repaired, restored or perhaps would like to purchase one. There.
Till next time,
Regards (with a wink),
Best,

ps. Too funny, When Russ discovered I blogged about him--told you he was shy-- he came up with an idea for a blog. Isn't that something? Soon to follow, I'll be blogging about an American Beauty--it truly is. Also, something made my day today.. more about that later. Best, Sue
