Rusting away in Sioux City, Iowa. This car is actually parked beside the road. I don't think I see a tow truck coming to get her anytime soon.
Four rusted-out 55 gallon drums in the middle of nowhere. Fuel drums for the equipment that dug the pipeline a couple decades ago? Or left over from a 1940s fuel stockpile or local dumping grounds?
This is what was left in the fire...
:We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it:
Matthew 6:19 says, "Don't store up treasures here on earth, where they can be eaten by moths and get rusty, and where thieves break in and steal." This cast iron pan has rust on the outside--of course, we could treat it, so it wouldn't, but then that wouldn't make for a good photo opp. Though I love this pan--and the aebleskivers Jim makes using it--it's not one of my most prized possessions. But I do wonder, where are my treasures? And would my actions actually match my answer?
The rusted anchor looked really nice...and of-course by increasing the contrast the rust colors came out fantastic...
Rusted. I like this a lot for some reason.
Thought and affliction, passion, hell itself,
She turns to favour and to prettiness.

Rust roest is a Dutch expression which means ´idleness rusts the mind´. Literally translated it would be: rest rusts.
In Peso da Régua (Portugal) I noticed some old trains behind the train station. I asked if I were allowed to walk there (in The Netherlands it is strictly forbidden to walk across the rails. The people in the train station laughed, didn´t understand why I was asking that (no problem) and didn´t seem to understand why I wanted to do that anyway.
I was fascinated by those old trains, that seemed to have been here for ages. Grass growing in the engines, rust and flaking paint. Rust roest, literally.

Portland is known as a Bike friend city. This rusted bike sits along the Willamette River shore. Not sure if it was submerged at one time, or is the victim of years of decay due only to it's proximity to the water's edge. Interesting.
Slightly rusted wood cutters and other agricultural tools, antique license plates, vintage sconces, and charcoal starters that have been converted into pendant lamps decorate the space.
