It's an archive shot taken at the tin-working shop at Greenfield Village, an 80-acre historical museum complex in Dearborn, Michigan. It seemed like a good subject to try creating a sketch- or drawing-like look. I'm not sure how well I succeeded in that, but I like the look.

Good, old fashioned tin opener - this is called a โButterflyโ tin opener. Used them for years - the sort my mum and grandma used as well. Very reliable and not gimmicky! Didnโt know itโs โofficialโ name until doing a bit of research.
An essential kitchen utensil!

And a bit of info just found on Google!
โButterfly Tin Openers: These tin openers are made in a classic style that's been knocking about since the 1920s. They get their name from their shape, which somewhat resembles a butterfly and is a combination of a traditional church-key opener and a serrated-wheel opener.โ
Barkerville British Columbia, Canada is a preserved historic gold rush town. In 1861 Billy Barker discovered gold in the area and his claim alone yielded 37,000 ounces (1,065klg) of gold. Before the construction of the Cariboo Wagon Road, people hauled their own supplies to the town either on their backs or pack train which consisted of horses, mules or donkeys. The Cariboo Wagon Road started in Yale, British Columbia and went 650 Kilometres through extremely hazardous areas like the Fraser and Thompson River Canyons before reaching Barkerville.

This is Tin-tin and he is at least 16 years old. We took him in as a stray 12 years ago. He was very much an out door cat, but now he hardly ever ventures outside.
He has artritis, a bit of dementia, and is hard of hearing ... but he still enjoys his food and cuddles. He used to be jet black, but is slowly turning brown.
Little shout out to Yelp. We use that site to find great places to eat wherever we go. It's amazing to my how successful we are with it. The Tin Room was a cool little place we found in Seattle for a post flight lunch. Fabulous Friday to you my friend. Have fun.
