The only reasonable explanation I can think of about why it was possibly made, is photography. It was made to be shot. As if the lady in your avatar steps out of the past, you know, the time when they dressed dramatically with tons of fancy clothes. <snip>

It is fun looking, huh?

Not much use for rain nor wind. Sun use only with sunblock.

Soooo cute! Thanks for the pic and the link. I think Yum Yum is sweet also. I haven't read a "Cat Who.." book in a while, maybe I'll reread one.

It's too hot for all the effort with a brick. I hope it is much easier and faster with the grinder. Hopefully, it is balanced and doesn't make the grinder vibrate when you use it. We had to do an edge where the garage door closed and one of the ones we bought made the grinder vibrate so much it was hard to hold. We had to take it back and exchange it. Have fun!
