“Rust and Bones” (and some bird poop) – Skin to Bone… Steel to Rust… Ashes to Ashes… Dust to Dust -- I went cruising for pictures on Sunday and found a backroad I never fully checked out before. Hit the Jackpot in this patch of trees, 5 bull skulls, 3 old rust buckets
An International Harvester truck with a lot of character. A 1956 S-100 model. Was on display at the Heartland Car Show held in Paola Kansas.
"And we've all grown older,
come see where we have been
Out here rusting in the rain."

The rusting hulk of an ice-breaking tug is being towed back to its home base on the Caledonian Canal in a project to restore it to its former glory. The Scot II was built in 1931 and operated on the canal from its home berth at Fort Augustus. It was later used as a pleasure cruiser, a floating bar and restaurant before sinking near a boatyard on Bute. A former canal lock keeper Daniel Clark is leading efforts to restore the tug as an ice-breaker.
A rusty bolt for this weeks rust theme at Macro Mondays, I suspect it won't be the only one submitted this week :-)
Rivets and Rust” — Detail of weathered and distressed steel structure on the Steel Bridge, Portland, Oregon
I made this photograph at about the same time as another one that I posted recently — it also featured a close-up view of the weathered structure of an old steel bridge with rivets, colorful stains, and lots of weathering.
Whether the specific location is all that important is debatable, but I made the photograph on the “Steel Bridge” (that’s actually its name), over the Willamette River in Portland, Oregon. This is an old and quite busy structure, and it is full of fascinating little vignettes.
