This is my Ruby Post. This Vase has a story behind it , as does most of my "just stuff".
We were living in our first home bought in California, I decorated the living area with Red accents. (I guess I always have but did not think of it until I started this post.)
I had Red Ball chain hanging lamps. When they were on they created a beautiful glow. One day a friend drove up. He said, "Oh is this the RED LIGHT HOUSE?" It became a big joke to him that Sue ran a Red Light house.
Another friend was my pastors wife. Viola Yarbrough.
She had a visiting minister from Tulsa Oklahoma. His name was Bob McGuire. (Oh Man was he cute).
He often came to our house for dinner. One day he brought this vase over. It was a left over from a divorce. He said it would fit perfect in my home.
It did and it has for over 40 years. That vase has become a central point of lots of still life's.
It brings back memories of me when I was 21, and still having babies and life was much simpler.
