Avery Creek UMC Car Show, Part 2

Here are some some shots from yesterday

Mr. Heddon did all the work on this beauty. He's in the background with his schnauzer. I spent  a minute with is beauty. Enjoy!

If you look closely at the radiator cap, you nat see that it is also a gage. Mr Ford you had it going on!

If you look at the Spark plug wires, you will see they are not insulated. That one way to control the varmints under the hood. I was told that the shock would send a grown man to his knees. 



Avery Creek UMC Car Show, Part 1

Let's start with some Pinstripes. 





A Safe little nymph


I spied this little wood nymph celebrating Life and my camera made me do it!

I wonder what this guy is thinking? He sure could play that guitar well though

Old guy at straightaway cafe


I found this guy at a roadhouse on the way to Chimney Rock. The Straightaway Cafe is a really nice place with great food and music by the local talent. I don't know much about this guy, but his face tells so many stories.

A new, old ballon


There is a new consignment shop right around the corner from us and they have some pretty cool stuff. I liked this  lamp. It is a boy and girl on a whimsical trip to fantasy land.

And then there is Mary


This young lady has such personality. I love all dogs, but Mary is something special. She brings smiles to all who know her.

Fall is here



I took this au-natural. I did not move anything, not did I create the natural frame.

There was this contest whose theme was the season called Fall. The critique was that it could not be the way nature created it. The leaf placement was too perfect. O well. I know how the shot worked. It is nice and here it is for your enjoyment.

My passions finally realized

So I am beginning to realize that I may have some little skill with my camera, and I have always loved beer. Well guess what? I can combine the two! I love technology!



Turtles at Beaver Lake

I had a few moments between jobs.



What do you think?

Mother's Day

So, this is a bit of a story... Mom is 91 this year and needs nothing but a smile. I love her but was challenged to find a present she would like. So I decided to get these cats, mother and child. Part of the idea was to get an image that really shows off it's beauty. I will matt and frame it for her to display.



Money and......?

I think it says it all. What do you think?

Grove arcade on the 5th of July

Truly, this is a typical scene at any mall. But I to this one the day after we celebrated our counties' independence. If you look at the toddler reaching out to the flag, yet it is totally enshrouded in her  mommies backpack.
