    I didn’t even remember I had the first set of coasters.

    The second set of fish ones I also have in orange plastic.

    The third set is made of very heavy resin. I like them a lot because the coasters match the case but if you drop them sometimes the flowers pop off.

    I’ve always been fond of the Las Vegas turtles with all the original hotels on them. I’m not sure what a turtle has to do with anything though because Vegas isn’t especially known for slow action.

    Record coasters are always going to be my favorite coasters. I have quite a few sets of these in different color album jackets.

    I love this stuff!

    Allee, what is the “bar bell” in the second photo? I don’t recall that piece of kitsch.

    My mouth hangs open the entire time I’m shooting kitsch at “Willis Wonderland”. I must look so nutty but I’m telling you all, this bit of barware is nothing compared to what is in the storage unit. This day was fun and I sat and devoured the peanut M & M’s while I took these pictures.

    I was in heaven.

    Mod Betty – What is the Hacienda?

    Denny- The Hacienda is our affectionate name for our Spanish style ranch hanging out amongst the brick Capes and Victorian houses here in PA. We stick out here, but in a very cool way.

    Allee- I’ve just taken a quick photo of my record coasters (white jacket) atop the Hacienda bar and will share momentarily!
