Way off theme for this week and probably a sign of desperation... Taken late tonight so focus and DOF are really not good at all. At least there is something here that I can learn from considering the conditions the photo was shot in.
It will have to do for today. Better to have a photo for the day than miss it entirely in my opinion.
Too long of a day today dealing with issues with the house (fix-it issues that is). This wasn't the issue of the day. This stemmed from this past weekend when the pool pump motor decided that it had lived its last day. In the process of replacement (which has yet to be completed) and wiring, the outdour electric box recepticle lid broke along with a screw breaking off that held the cover on. Needless to say, the entire box and contents were replaced.
Maybe I should have taken a picture when I was disassembling everything because that old stuff may have met the 80's theme this week.... :)

I cannot help myself. Here’s a story about records, books, postage, recycling and reuse.
This box started out life containing 16 copies of Patrick O’Farrell’s paperback book with ISBN 0-86840-635-X, sent from the University of New South Wales Press (printed on the box). It must have been sent to Readings bookshop in Carlton, who reused it to send something to Dr Phillip Law (1912-2010) at his home in Canterbury (address label on the bottom of the box, unfortunately Post Paid Australia with no postmark). Dr Law used it to store excess publications about Antarctica (inscribed on the box in his own hand). On the death of Dr Law in 2010, the box ended up with us, the eScholarship Research Centre, who have been working with Dr Law on his papers since the mid 1980s. We have the final material from Dr Law now processed and boxed in special National Library of Australia boxes, ready for transfer to their custody.
Looking up the book in the National Library of Australia’s Trove catalogue and checking the ISBNs of the different editions reveals that this box originally held the third edition of The Irish in Australia, published in 2000.
I needed a box to send 18 copies of a book we have just published (November 2011), Founders, Firsts and Feminists: Women Leaders in Twentieth-century Australia, to a conference being held in Canberra next week. This box did the job nicely!
A view of the ring inside the box when Chris first brought it home. This gives a great view of the setting.
A functional work of art! One-of-a-kind, hand-painted jewelry box that was rescued from a thrift store. Collaged pages from a vintage book adorn this fun and functional jewelry box.
Box number 235 from a huge (15,000+ slides) collection of slides I was given, the album title is what was written on the box and all the photos have left as they were scanned and not edited in any way. Contact me If you wish to republish any photos.
my hubby found this wee tiny for me =) he rescued him from a cemetery that was fixin to be cut. little guy has a for ever home on my hillside now ....little feller just melted my heart
Each year, Gallery Route One in Point Reyes invites over a hundred artists to create unique works of art using a wooden box.
Here are the inspiring artworks they created this year: they range in style from whimsical to poignant and thought-provoking. These photos were taken on closing day, when the gallery organized a live auction for each of this year’s 150 boxes. The proceeds support the gallery’s exhibits and community programs.
Two of the boxes were created by members of our art community: Howard Rheingold (a.k.a. Dr. Rindbrain) contributed an illuminated box called ‘Magical’, while Geo Monley and Meryl Rubenstein made ‘Les Puzzles.’
Members of ‘Pataphysical Studios came to cheer for their peers -- Dr. Really was the highest bidder for Dr. Rindbrain’s piece, which was thus kept in the family. After the show, we all went to Stellina to celebrate over a nice dinner.

Tirei muitas fotos do box moment dela porque simplesmente estou completamente in love com essa pullip <3 e porque é difícil achar fotos dela por aí ;-; eu nunca acho...
Bom, primeiras impressões:
- wig excelente! Super lisinha, brilhante, de uma qualidade ótima, tipo as da Clara e da Chloi =D faltou pouco para ser como a da Hermine XD Só os cachos vieram meio bagunçados e foi preciso dar uma moldada neles com um pouco de creme e gel, mas fora isso, ótimos!
- outfit perfeito, SUPER detalhado!! *0* E ela é uma doll sem acessórios, veio tudo nela! XD E os sapatinhos ao lado. A cora estava um pouco descosturando da fita, por ser de metal, pesada. Mas colei ela e agora não está caindo! o/
- make dela é adorável! Delicada e fofa e acho que fica com um ar de menina moe, super fofa mesmo! <3 Os lábios parecem formar um 3 invertido e a sombra dos olhos dá um ar ligeiramente caído, todo meigo! *-*
Taken on the top step of the signal box. Hayley is a fantastic model so much energy and a great laugh, maybe a bit "in your face" but she does have a subtle side.
Now in my day toys from cereal boxes were worth getting excited about. They were class. Add baking soda and they'd move, explode and i vaguely recall one of the divers i had from some shreddies discovering atlantis. Or maybe it was the plug. Either way. Anyway, compare those precision made plastic masterpieces to the above lump of crap. A lion stood on a door. It can stand on the door, or off the door. Awesome. Better still it has a gammy paw. Now i've watched nature programs, no lion with a gammy paw gets to sit at the top of the tree, let alone star in a hollywood movie. My diver may have had no hands, or recogniseable features to speak of but he found atlantis and i'm willing to bet no crippled lion manages that anytime soon.
The Old Virginia Brick Company in Salem, Virginia. It stopped operating in 2015 and the site was sold at auction that year. It looks like no one has touched it since then.
Life inside the music box ain't easy
The malots hit the gears are always turning
And everyone inside the mechanism
Is yearning
To get out
Glasgow police box, High St. and Cathedral Square being altered from its original and correct red to London police box blue. All to make it look like a 'Tardis' and provide a photo opportunity for Dr. Who fans. What price heritage and accuracy compared to a cheap theatrical prop?!
The memory of my lunch box and what my mother put inside it.
The memory of going to baseball games at Westgate Park where I watched Tony Perez play as a minor leaguer. Two of my baseball hero's are pictured here... Ted William and Eddie Mathews (both of San Diego}.
The memory of owning my first pocket knife and wristwatch.
The memory of marbles and all the other games I played.
And lastly the memory of my bullfrog 'Black Jack'. Once homework and chores were finished my parents let me off to the fields and the canyons. The memory of all the snakes, lizards, and insects that I brought home and was allowed to keep. Black Jack shown here was donated to The San Diego Zoo one day and my dad and I were brought back behind the displays to see everything there!
I lived a very full and active life as a boy...
