I sat on the couch and turned on the TV to check the weather. On my coffee table was a mug with pens, pencils, scissors, magnifying glass, etc. and a little grass basket with a lid where I kept stamps, rubber bands and stuff. All of a sudden the basket started smoking! Yep, the sun was shining through the mag glass and the basket was about to go up in flames. If it had happened the day before, I would have been at work. Definitely planets in alignment.

We were given a glass globe that was laser etched on the inside (a science I don't understand) with horses. It and it's nice decorative base were set in our front bay window. The morning sun would go thru that globe and, like a magnifying glass on ants, proceeded to burn the nice oak window sill. No major harm done, but it looks like someone set a stinky cigar down and forgot about it. Never underestimate the power of the sun.Cedar View Paint Horseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09407880448814901911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-84450876890206185212012-06-23T06:45:40.310-06:002012-06-23T06:45:40.310-06:00Lucky you were in the room at the time ..... it co...Lucky you were in the room at the time ..... it could have been a lot worse.Tombstone Livestockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07022776395762826903noreply@blogger.com
