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.
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!

Prominent Physcian in Herkimer, Left to the city.
Herkimer County Historical Society is located in the 1884 Suiter Building, a historic home in Herkimer, Herkimer County, New York. It is a 2 1⁄2-story, wood frame structure with red pressed brick walls laid in black mortar built in 1884. It features a complex pitched roof of slate with a brick corbelled cornice and terra cotta ornament along the roof edge. There is also an octagonal peaked roof above the corner tower. Built originally as a private home, it was unfinished at the time of its builders death in 1925 and given to the Herkimer County Historical Society who occupied it in 1935.[2]

The Sint-Gustaafsmolen is a windmill remnant in the town of De Moeren, which is part of the West Flemish municipality of Veurne .
This round stone mill of the ground sailor type functioned as a polder mill .
Mills were placed on the sluices between the polder and the outlet pool.
These mills were able to pump water upwards and thereby pump water from the polder into the outlet pools, regardless of the rivers' water level.
The mill was built between 1814 and 1820 and was given the name: De Leie .
The mill knocked out the water from De Moeren with the aid of a mortar.
The mill was still operational during the First World War, after which it was neglected.
In 1923 he lost one rod, and in 1927 the other rod, along with the hood, also blew off.
The mill was then dismantled and a pointed hood was placed on it.
The mill shaft was reused in 1935 in the new Lindemolen in Alveringem .
In 1985 the mill came into the possession of Willem Vermandere who had the hull restored and established a sculpture workshop in it.
Hope you like.
Have a lovely day and thank you, as always, M, (*_*)

This is for the for now the last one of the Tweebosbuurt mini-series. It shows that modern demolition nowadays can be relatively resource-friendly. When possible metal is salvaged from the rubble. And bricks too. After removal of the cement traces, they’re reusable for renovation and new constructions – they’re often used for their rustic appearance.
This is the Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge located in Fredericton, New Brunswick. Many years ago it was repurposed from a Rail Bridge to a walking bridge. In order to visit a family member, we drove from Digby, N.S. to Fredericton N.B.. We had reserved the 4:30pm Ferry but at 3:pm, we received an email stating the Ferry had been cancelled, and in fact never left Fredericton. Bastards!
We kept our cool and decided to make the 6.5 hour drive. We did however, enjoy the scenery along the way. My compliments to those responsible for designing the highway system in Nova Scotia. Other Provinces could learn from those engineers, and how to move traffic both effectively and quickly.
The building pictured above has a long history with the YMCA in Rockford. It is located at 220 East State Street in Rockford, IL. Even though the YMCA of Rock River Valley does not currently occupy the building, the stones above the doorway will always read YMCA.
Rockford, Illinois was first settled around 1834. As Rockford grew, the east side of the Rock River developed into a commercial district, featuring the post office and the first two hotels. State Street, which runs through the district, became an important transportation corridor between Belvidere and Galena. The first bridge in Rockford was built on State Street across the river in 1852; it was the only crossing until 1890. Also that year, the Galena and Chicago Union Railroad reached the east side of Rockford, built along the eastern riverfront, providing economic stimulus. By 1860, the entirety of State Street from the tracks to Second Street was commercial development. The commercial building at 324–30 East State Street is the lone remnant from this era that has not been substantially altered
The Drake Hotel, a historic 375-foot-tall, 33-story luxury hotel located at 1512-1514 Spruce Street at the corner of S. Hicks Street between S. 15th and S. 16th Street in the Rittenhouse Square neighborhood of Philadelphia, was built in 1928-29 and was designed by the architectural firm of Ritter and Shay in the Art Deco style with Spanish Baroque terra cotta ornamentation on themes surrounding Sir Francis Drake, including "dolphins, shells, sailing vessels and globes." The building is topped by a terra cotta dome.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 18, 1978. It was added to the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places on October 6, 1977.[2] In 1998, the building was extensively renovated and converted to condominiums as "The Drake".
A Mexican restaurant reused this old Chinese pagoda sign from the 1980s. No, they don't serve Chinese-Mexican fusion. It's considered to be the last visible remnant of Chicago's first Chinatown.
Beautifully shaped jam jars are saved and reused for homemade jam or jelly.

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.
ANSH 123 (6) planet first for earth day
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.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Henry Clay was originally developed as an Elks Lodge in 1924. Throughout the 1930s, ’40s, and ’50s, the building was a premier hotel, bustling in the center of downtown. After housing the YWCA, the building sat vacant for many years – later to be brought back to its previous grandeur with renovations by Weyland Ventures Group in 2005.
Residents enjoy a return to elegance and grandeur provided by this unique and historic building from the 1920's era. Henry Clay Residents occupy 11 condos and 33 loft-style apartments with ready access to the Theatre and Medical districts, the 7-story Downtown YMCA, the 4th St. Live entertainment district and all downtown offerings. No other project in the area offers vintage charm with modern amenities and distinguished architectural elements. Just open the front doors to the Grand Lobby 176

I was pleased to find that the Northern Flickers were going to reuse the nest they built last year. They appear to be more comfortable with my presence than last year, so I'm looking forward to getting some more fun photos here.
I'm fairly sure when I took this shot, the eggs were already laid, for after twenty minutes of quiet waiting, this male's head popped out and stayed out until the missus arrived. Then with a quiet chortle of greeting, they quickly swapped spots. The male flew out before the female landed under the nest.
When I checked on the nest yesterday, I was pleased to hear that the chicks had hatched. When a parent returned and entered the nest hole, the tiniest of chicks squeakings could be heard...begging for first dibs on feeding.
This will be my last upload for awhile...again..., as I'm behind on a great many things...including writing an article for a local magazine. More on that to come. So, until next time, enjoy your week/weekend and thank you so much for all your support, faves and comments. They are always appreciated!
