Built in 1938 as a Marathon Gas Station, this delightful structure is now the home of the Springfield Bicycle Doctor. In the years between being a gas station and bicycle shop, the building has been occupied as a laundry and dry cleaners, real estate office and, more recently, a barber shop. The current owners, Robert and Cynde LaBonte, purchased the property in early 2012, and have since remodeled the original building for their bicycle sales and repair shop, and have added a small storage building.
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Love the guys hat in this previously unpublished shot from February 2018 - No. 4201 uploaded to my 'Black and White Streets' album.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!

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.

plastic pots can be used multiple times for planting/repotting flowers, they are durable and easy to use, maybe not very pretty but as an insert for a ceramic pot they are perfect
I'm assuming no one will mind that I'm reusing a backdrop that I bought/ photographed five years ago. 😁
This highly attractive building was constructed in 1929 for the German Motor Company, an automobile dealership which had long roots in Jacksonville selling the Buick, Marquette, and Oldsmobile lines of motor cars, with Pontiac added before World War II. During the war years, the property also saw use as the Black Louis Filling Station.
In 1947, the Longstaff Motor Company took the property and were selling Pontiac and Packard automobiles. Later, in the 1950s, the building was the home to an automotive supply company.
It was after mid-century that the automotive use of the building ended and it was repurposed as Boyd Music, a popular business throughout central Illinois for their band instruments (including our daughter's). Since I took this photo, Boyd has moved into one of the old garage bays and now focus on instrument repair. Today the main part of the building is BLH Computers, a central Illinois business who sell and repair PCs.
Founded in 1825, the City of Jacksonville is the seat of Morgan County. The city had a population of 17,616 at the 2020 census.
This is a serene golden hour aerial view of Austin's skyline, gently reflected in the calm waters of Lady Bird Lake, a reservoir of the Colorado River. Auditorium Shores is the park on the south side of the lake. The park is a major recreational area, the site of major music performances at South by Southwest (SXSW), and several other events.
The Union Pacific Railroad Bridge (a.k.a. Austin Graffiti Train Bridge), a testament to Austin's rich history, is on the lower left. At the edge of the river's north shore is the Seaholm Intake Facility, a historic landmark, and just north, with its tall smokestacks, is the turbine generator building, now repurposed as apartments.
Block 185 (a.k.a. Google Building), The Independent, Sixth and Guadalupe, and The Austonian are among the skyscrapers in this view.
Austin is the 10th largest city in the United States and the fourth largest in Texas.
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.
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.
We’re very into the notion of reusable wrapping alternatives, so this is my back-up posting for Macro Mondays theme of wrapping. The actual chosen posting comes up next. .
just because it isn't 'new' doesn't mean it hasn't got some use-- right??

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.
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
Chronicle Building was first planned in 1917. The final building that remains standing today was designed by G.A. Pehrson in downtown Spokane and completed in 1928.
Cowles continued to operate the papers independently until ad sales and back-end operations were combined in the 1980s. The sports staffs were combined in 1981 and news staffs in 1983.[4] The Chronicle was shut down in 1992 after 111 years in operation and more than 26,000 editions printed.[5] The landmark building remained in use as an office building before being converted into apartments.
Spokane's economy has traditionally been natural resource based—heavily dependent on extractive products produced from farms, forests, and mines—however, the city's economy has now diversified to encompass other industries, including the high-tech, healthcare, and biotech sectors. 212
I've build this interlude especially for a LUG venue in about 1,5 months.
From what you see 95% is new. I only reused the fountain, the gondolas and the street lighting from my previous Venice moc. The rest is new and build from the ground up.
Even the water had to be rebuild because it fell apart when i broke down venice part 1 in 23'
I hope you enjoy what you see, and if you have any technique breakdown requests. Let me know

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.
