A very pleasant wander over a chilly Ingleborough. One of those occasions where I smugly trot down the iced up paths in my microspikes. I'm definitely going to fall on my face next time aren't I?
Whenever we go grocery shopping, I find that I look at the packaging our food comes in as a possible photographic subject. One afternoon my husband came home with a large bag of tangerines. I enjoy that fruit, yet the bag holding the orange orbs made me especially happy.
What do you do with an old copper bowl that has a hole in it? Some people might fix the hole.
Or, you can make the hole bigger and turn it into a small sink.

The Caldwell County jail was built in 1908-1909. Designed by architect T. S. Hodges, this castellated brick structure served as the county's jail until 1982. Hodges is also known for the Dr. Eugene Clark Library in Lockhart shown previously in this short series.
The jailer's quarters occupy the ground floor, over a storage area in the basement. The upper floor contain fifteen cells of concrete and steel, with one cell rising from the center of the building. Gallows are said to have been removed from this jail in the 1930s.
Now a museum, the jail also hosts exhibits relating to the history of Caldwell County and the State of Texas. The former jail is not a Texas Historic Landmark.
Lockhart is the seat of Caldwell County, and is located 30 miles (48 km) south of Austin. The estimated population of Lockhart in 2019 was 14,133. Known as the Barbecue Capital of Texas, Lockhart also has played host to many film sets. The 1996 Christopher Guest comedy film Waiting for Guffman and the 1993 drama What's Eating Gilbert Grape were filmed partially in Lockhart, including the historic courthouse and the town square.

My wonderful SIL created gift bags this year and mailed them early with requests to “open” them!! They are sewn from quilt squares and the back side is red felt— isn’t she clever? The next picture in the photostream shows some of the things that were in the bag!

A fence I used once before. I use it again to christen a new lens, and because the fence pickings ain't so good in our neighborhood. Is anyone running fence tours?
HFF to all: Looking forward to seeing everyone's handiwork.
Imagine, if you will, the conversation between the developer and investors: Developer ----"So the plan is to take these old grain silos and turn them into an amusement park. We'll have zip lines running between the towers, and we'll build a beer garden and event's centre in the silo foundations. Then there's the ice rink, the Ferris wheel, ax throwing..." Investors--- "You're out of your mind. Let's do it."

Everyday I remove the card from my camera and dump the photos on my computer, then put the card back into the camera for next day. So far just once did I pull out the camera to get the red flash of no card. The reusable card is also on my faux Autumn leaf that gets used each year for accent on mantel.
As individuals we need to stop using plastic that is single use, and manufacturers must stop producing the vast majority of it.

This is my first real drone. Meatbag is there for scale and fire support, also I like the stickers on the shirt. The decals on the drone aren't Lego, they're from an old helicopter kit and an old tank kit, mainly because I don't have good Lego stickers. Also reused background is reused. Also, hail Dronezus.
When historic buildings are proposed to be demolished in Over the Rhine, the case is first presented to the Historic Conservation Board (HCB). The HCB makes a determination whether the demolition is appropriate or not (issuing a Certificate of Appropriateness -COA- in cases where it is appropriate).
While most people associate the deteriorating building on the west side of Main Street between Central Parkway and 12th Street with the Davis Furniture Company, the history of the building goes further back than the business' arrival in 1939. Davis Furniture was founded in 1902 and had a store on Sycamore Street until 1931, when they moved to the now-demolished Jefferson Hall at the southwest corner of 12th and Main.
It takes nearly one hour of walking to reach this wreckage of a DC-3 at the black beach of Sólheimasandur. However, for a special wedding photo, this effort seems to be acceptable.
I am constantly amazed by the clever ways creators can take odd bits & pieces and create a wonderful new piece of art!

U's (four & a half y-o) teacher was absent & NOT replaced so he stayed home with me. On this pic, he was doing the lacing cards I had made last year, re-using bits of cardboard, and pencils. (and a puncher, obviously !) (Jan. 26th 2009)
