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.

Love the guys hat in this previously unpublished shot from February 2018 - No. 4201 uploaded to my 'Black and White Streets' album. Enjoy!
Dick Brothers Brewery was founded in 1857, and was one of the largest beer brands in the early 20th century rivaling Anheuser-Busch at one time. Dick Brothers closed in 1951. Today the complex of buildings is being redeveloped for commercial and entertainment use. It now is the centerpiece of the South Side German Historic District, listed in 1992 on the National Register of Historic Places.
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!

I reused my grandmother's wedding ring as my wedding ring. It didn't bring much luck.
Ik heb de trouwring van mijn oma hergebruikt als mijn trouwring. Het bracht niet veel geluk.
Reuse:
Floating vehicle, the wheels are made with plastic bottles
Veicolo galleggiante, le ruote sono fatte con bottiglie di plastica

As individuals we need to stop using plastic that is single use, and manufacturers must stop producing the vast majority of it.

Have a nice Friday and a good start into the weekend. 🌸
Many, many thanks for all your views, faves and comments.
So when you gonna tell her that we did that, too?
She thinks it's special, but it’s all reused
That was the show we talked about
Played you the songs she's singing now when she's with you
I know you get déjà vu
My DD was painting outside and used a plastic mini quiches container as a mixing pallet. It was left outside and various bugs wandered in and got stuck. The orange paint pot was the most popular…..
Anyhow I used my cloning skills in the app Retouch and made it prettier!! Will put the buggy original in the first comment box in a bit
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.
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.
Some of you may be wondering why someone would go to all the trouble of creating this Facebook page and network of websites to tell you about water bottles. Here's your answer:
The world is deteriorating, as a result of decisions we have made. Every year, thousands of pounds of trash are deposited in landfills across the United States. However, because of recente advances in technology, more and more of this trash can be diverted away from landfills by simple consumer decisions. The short version: choices you make can save trash from landfills. People are always looking for simple ways they can help, ways they can be part of the movement. It doesn't always have to start with the government. The decisions that we make can add up to have huge impacts. Take water bottles for instance:
It's estimated that the average American drinks 167 bottles of bottled water each year. Simply by using a reUSeable water bottlé, you can help save these 167 bottles from going to the landfill.
So why the funky name? US is capitalized because this movement won't move without the cooperation of US - it's a communal movement. And why is it a water "bottlé"? Well, simply because bottlé is Swiss for "stylish metal container", and what doesn't sound cooler when it's in Swiss?
My local grocery store, Harmon's, has a pretty concerted program to eliminate plastic grocery bags and replace them with reusable ones like this. They even give a five cent credit on your bill for each bag you use.
I'm not a big fan of these cheaper ones and use canvas tote bags so often given as premiums on PBS and NPR. They work very well and don't tear like the single use plastic ones do.
at the street arts festival in worcester on sunday (9/25/16), some of the vendors/artists had unique sorts of things for sale. this artist, melissa calling her work anxietiart, makes people and animals from "found" items-- reduce reuse recycle
you can see some of her other things here:
... laundry netbag and makeup remover pads.
The purpose - where I start -
is the idea of USE.
It is not recycling, it's REUSE.

Thanks for views, faves and comments!
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!

Some of the contents of a large plastic box in our kitchen drawer where we put our recyclable items such as plastic bottles, magazines, flyers, food tins and drink cans. When it's full I take it out to the garage & tip everything in a big wheelie bin. This gets collected by a private company fortnightly, the other week they take our actual rubbish (trash) away, thankfully we don't produce much of that so often that wheelie bin only goes out once a month. Glass has to be taken to a bottle bank. I use to take gardening & bird watching magazines to our GP surgery for others to read but those days are gone.
We compost all our newspapers, cardboard packaging/toilet rolls etc & I reuse suitable plastic food trays to stand plant pots in. All available windowsills currently have trays with small pots containing tomato/chilli/pepper/courgette & sweetcorn seedlings, waiting for the current cold snap to pass so I can plant them out in the polytunnel.
For Macro Mondays theme "Trash" HMM!
