December 30

Assignment:  Draw a clock.  Rick's parents received this "Golden Hour" clock as a wedding present.  We even have picture of them in their wedding clothes in front of their gifts, and this clock is in the photo. 

Basically forever this clock sat on top of their china cabinet in the dining room.  Rick's sister Katie took the clock when we broke up their house after they both passed away two years ago.  Katie had the clock rewired and gave it to Rick for his birthday that year.  It now lives on top of teak hutch in our living room.

On a Golden Hour clock, the hands don't turn themselves.  They remain fixed on the rotating glass face.  To everyone in the family this clock was the most iconic item from Kate and Con's home.  We are very lucky to have the safe keeping of the clock....  Mary
