When it's a heat wave, your house doesn't have A/C, and you still need to can stuff. Currently have the Coleman stove going outside, working on a batch of pickled beets.

Some Sheaffer Touchdown fountain pens that have aged incredibly well. These pens are all likely 75+ years old, but I feel like they could pass as modern pens.

Sheaffer Touchdown fountain pens, still modern and functional after 75+ years.

These are a nice and reliable vintage fountain pen, that definitely don't look their age. These are simpler to restore than their more complicated Snorkel cousin, usually only requiring the replacement of their latex ink sac and o-ring. Once restored I'd expect a minimum of 20 years of functionality out of one of them.

Old man Bigfoot (16) takes his role as farm boss very seriously. He was out supervising me and Dad as we worked on some weekend chores like clearing out ditches and fixing fences. He got paid in pets and treats afterwards.

An early 1890s first generation Dietz Crystal lantern in excellent shape that I found today while out picking. These had glass tanks to view the fuel level. USA
