Beacon, NY -- Here's a creative use of the driftwood along the river banks. I was here today during high tide, and water and tiny pieces of driftwood were flowing under this arch constructed by locals.
just because it isn't 'new' doesn't mean it hasn't got some use-- right??

Saturday Self Challenge Chair
Stopping at a bakery in for a late breakfast on one of our walks, led to finding this chair, repurposed from a wine barrel. While it looks good, it actually wasn't that comfortable!

Back in the fall 2011 this was the scene just off Broad Street in downtown Nevada City. Today it looks virtually the same except the buildings are now home to our local radio station, KVMR. Actually, the interior has been entirely rebuilt to include the radio station and modern office space. In keeping with the town's historical charter, the old siding was removed, cleaned up, and reused on the exterior of the new building. Here in Nevada City things manage to change while staying somewhat the same.

In it's former life, this rusted out relic was an Exxon Service vessel. Now it serves as set dressing for a faux waterfront resort town of sorts, at Lake Sumpter Landing in The Villages, Florida.
As has been mentioned in a few comments below...the only thing missing here is the oil spill!
One of Norfolk Southern's recycled 90MAC specimens rolls along Lake Michigan, down Main 4 out of CP501 with empty steel gons from Alabama. With the steady pace these second-hand units are going through the shops at Altoona, its just a matter of time before this guy trades rouge for basic black. East Chicago, IN.

Mexican restaurant in an old gas station building, revisited (May, 2025). Last time, it had an SUV in front. Monahans is a relatively small town in the Permian Basin area in West Texas.
We have all been in a similar situation, I was on my knees with the macro lens to do some crocus shots when this bee happened by. I had to take the shot but with a far too slow shutter. The blurred wings and antennae don't make for great photos but by the time I recovered, it had moved on.
