The Concord Coach

This blogger won't let me, or I haven't figured out how to, upload U-Tube stuff, so if you go to The Concord Coach Part One, under Pamelacreates, so will see the first installment of Dad's filming of making his coach. I will put it on U-Tube in about ten minute parts, as there is a limit to each film size.

Dad's address

Woops. I got that wrong. It's 378 Webster Rd. Coventry, Orleans, VT 05860. NOT 278

Dad in the field

The FISH Wagon

Dad is wanting to build a better cover for the FISH Wagon. This was part of the FISH concert given a few years back - you know - the FINAL concert - the one that "got rained out". I was there, as our farm was just a few miles from the concert. As no one could drive on the road leading to the concert except the residents, those of us living on the road made BANK charging for rides!!!! My Dad helped with a LOT of the props, all of which he kept. So now the question is, WHERE is he going to get the money to keep the building up? As you may notice from other stuff posted here, he has built quite the "empire" of antiques collections. He built the buildings himself. BUT, keeping them up is impossible on a teacher's retirement!!! SO .... I told him I would let you all know about this. Just put a buck in an envelop, slap a stamp on it, and address it to: Fred Webster, 278 Webster Rd Coventry, Orleans, VT 05860. He has always let anyone interested wander around the place and check out his "stuff". He's just a trusting old fart. Things have been stolen, but he refuses to lock everything up. He insists that he has spent the latter part of his life collecting things so everyone can enjoy. Part of that is EXPERIENCING.

Research for the new coach


While home this past spring, Dad was working on his new coach. He had spent the winter building it. Here is a picture of the bottom frame, in his workshop.
