This is going to be short and sweet. I am on a trip to take Jeff's ashes and bury them in my family cemetery in California. Tonight I am in Ottawa, KS. It has been a day of extremes in weather, and emotions.
I like the yard ornaments at my local feed store. Including this cute flamingo.
I stopped in Casey, Illinois and saw the worlds largest Rocking chair.
The worlds largest wind chime.
Yes it was windy and it actually had a lovely sound.
There was a giant pencil along the street.
There was also a ruler but I didn't get a picture of it.
I have a tendency to find things which I think are a bit absurd.
This neat old hardware store on main street.
What I thought was so funny there is a balcony that runs along the top of the awning.
It is all falling apart, which I found amusing.
Finally an old truck holding a sign along the highway.
I will be driving and internet is spotty. Everyone have a wonderful Thursday and head on over to LeeAnna's at
Not Afraid of Color to see the rest of the I Like Thursday posts.
thoughts are with you my friend on this emotional trip. love how you find the neatest things. that chime looks so fun
ReplyDeleteHi Colette,
ReplyDeleteSafe travels and {{{hugs}}} a bunch for you. This has to be a very hard trip for you. All those large items are in the same city? How cool to be able to hear the wind chimes - I wonder if some people get tired of hearing them. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't! {{Hugs}} again. Roseanne
