Congratulations Tay!

We like to document milestones here @ The Dog :)

Today is a great day for Tay Whiteside

who is now road worthy with a Learner's Permit!!!

Sally's looking forward to lots of rides

and we're excited he'll be able to run Black Dog Deliveries soon!

He's been ready for this for a while,

seeing that he taught me how to drive a forklift

when he was this age...

Here's one more vintage shot of another milestone...

Tay w/ mom, Susie, of Whiteside Designs, just before getting braces.

Boy time flies fast!

Welcome to the fast lane Tay... enjoy the drive! :)

Good News - Nor'East Architectural Antiques is Rebuilding!

A few months ago, we wrote about the devastating fire that destroyed Nor'East Architectural Antiques in this post. We are happy to report that they are rebuilding & moving full speed ahead. Best wishes go out to the Nor'East team! To read updates, click here for their blog.

I hope to make a trip to visit the new warehouse next summer when I head up to my favorite place in Maine (if you love vintage cabins & cottages, you'll love this rustic retreat!).
