Glenn Innes to Inverell mail bus Ford MO-854 last in service in the late1970's at the national motor museum at Inverell.

This has the look of a general store to me. Alas, I cannot remember where we found it—we were just tooling around after church—but who among us wouldn't stop? It is between Zanesville and Newark, I can tell you that. Pretty sure it's down the road from the exit on 70 that features the fun retro Denny's (which is, by the way, a great place to stop—friendly service, good food).

 

Leave Denny's (I mean it, they're very nice people and who doesn't love a big omelette?), cross over 70, keep going. It's down there somewhere. One of those "ooops turns" that worked out!

 

I hope you all are safe.

HMM. Ok, I suspect mail hasn't been delivered to this mostly abandoned farmstead for some time. Spotted on a recent road trip we took just to get away.

Conrail's hotshot Mail-3 was curving along the Juniata River behind a typical six-pack of high-horsepower EMD and GE four axle motors.

 

The hot trailer trains were a constant sight along the Middle Division on what was once the mighty Pennsylvania Railroad and the less successful Penn Central.

 

This classic trackage is now unfortunately Norfolk Southern's Pittsburgh Line.

  

sadly, no more

htc one, 2015

When I first got married it was so exciting to go the mailbox to get my mail. In fact, I would enter contests, send for coupons, order magazines anything just to fill my mailbox. Nowadays other than junk mail, my mailbox doesn't thrill me like it once did. Most of my bills are sent electronically and there is hardly any correspondence sent through the mail. Trying to be more environmentally aware last year I opted to skip mailed holiday greetings. I do miss the days of picking out special stationery and hand- writing letters to family and friends.

 

Everything in our society feels so urgent, we don't seem to want to wait for anything anymore. Do you remember mailing away your film and how exciting it was to get your photos back in the mail? I wouldn't want to go back to that but I think we need to learn about waiting and being excited again. Anticipating something is almost better than getting it.

In some way it made me think of a pneumatic mail system.

My goal with this series is to explore every day scenes under the cover of darkness. A street corner, a lamp post, a doorway. Big city, small town, urban, rural. Man-made light versus nature’s darkness–––light and shadow interpreting minimalist settings in black and white. To see more in this series, check out Cover Of Darkness

The postcard challenge this week is to add a charm.

who's next?

 

so i sent out 6 more of these name signs today. if anyone else wants/needs em, please let me know. they make great gifts, especially for kids w/ different spellngs of their names. having to afford a new camera now, as well as the regular bills....and possibly moving expenses just might kill me.

 

so here's the deal:

they are 16 x 20

on canvas

i add a coordinating ribbon to the girly ones

any name

any color scheme

any theme

 

i charge $15, but the shipping is the killer. shipping one is about $10. so, if you have some friends or family members, round em up and i'll ship a bunch to you. if you get enough people in your area to order em, i'll even give you yours for free.

 

am i a beggar or WHAT!? sorry----i just really need the $$ and since i have some time to do these now, i'm trying to be productive.

 

you can direct friends/family to my website: www.artsyt.com and click on "other artsy services" so they don't have to see half naked pics of me here on flickr. ha!

 

thanks you guys. look forward to the orders! :)

Jump aboard the miniature Mail Rail train and travel through the tunnels underneath London's Mount Pleasant sorting office. The track stretches all the way from Paddington to Whitechapel.
