The old buildings, etc.

 

A friend's car had had the back bumper pulled off by a bear, apparently. So she needed to get it reattached at an auto place that did body work. I followed her to Gray's Valley in Ridgecrest NC where lots of different Gray families live and work. This old out-building caught my artist's eye.

Some farming type outbuildings, and different wings where different things were stored. They look unused today. 

You could always find your shoes in the dark, if these were yours instead of the dad at the optometrist office.

Residents of Black Mountain are known to drive around with flags flying. At least these seem totally patriotic (I think the black one is for MIA)

Below are some good books that I just gave to my son Russ and his family.

And another old building!! Thanks Mesa Verde Cliff Palace.

Today's quote:

Finding time to be as naked as the day you were born can awaken feelings of contentment, freedom, and self-love.
