American Gothic by Grant Wood an Iowa painter! Being from Iowa I love the painting and at this
Farm & Science Review they gave people the opportunity to frame their faces with this painting! I found two helpful young girls to take my photo. One to take the photograph, and one (Savannah) to pose with me! Fun times.
My friend John reading while the women shop and I take photos in this thrift store!
These are friends of mine who are also members of a carving club at the Wilderness Center in Wilmot, OH.
I was privileged to get acquainted with these two, at the company that I am a sales rep for. The gal quit work, and by that weekend they were dating. He has since taken a new job! Blessings!
Getting used to my new mirrorless camera (Sony ZV-E10). I was parked on the road trying to capture a photo of this wild turkey that was crossing the road, and then trying to get over a fence. So it goes.
On this day I enjoyed the many sightings of birds and animals. A sandhill crane out in a farmer’s field, this turkey crossing the road, and on three occasions deer standing beside the road watching me go by. I stayed with this family, who had Baltimore Orioles coming to their feeder, like I have house finches, and goldfinch coming to mine! In the evening we strolled down to a large pond and caught a mess of crappies, and bluegills, which were enjoyed the next morning at breakfast! Their little boy is around 9 months old! This all happened on my two day, 1,000 mile trip into Michigan this week.
Enjoy your day and the rest of the week!
What’s behind that gate?
This young girl and I were surprised when we both entered this hallway and saw each other. So many memories of visiting her Uncles at a different location. Now she is probably 10 years older, and so am I! 🙂 What a nice surprise!
Also inside gate is this special family: Masum and his family. I met Masum 15 years ago, and we played soccer (football) together for 8 years. A very good friend! I enjoyed playing with the children, and enjoyed a nice meal of curried fish & chicken, dal, and rice!
In “my happy place!”
