I have a collection of Cast Iron Trivets all around the top of my kitchen walls, over 100, all different. If we ever have a earthquake in Ohio (get out of the kitchen, cast iron falling). I also collect gardening, cooking, and quilting books. I am crazy about (Tall Ships), so for years I have been painting their portraits, my walls are filled with tall ships. My son is in the Navy and occasionally has ask for some to give as gifts to friends.
