rust

 

Everyone knows how I love old things. Rusty old things, especially rusty old gates in cemeteries and at houses.

Mr. Front Porch finds all kinds of neat old "things" while tending to, and digging around our property. We keep a pile or three of them. LOL

Some of the things he discovers we know what they are.....some things are a mystery. LOL

I especially love when he finds a bottle, like this one.

I tell you, this thing was so packed with hard dirt....it was just like cement......and it soaked for DAYS!   He finally got it cleaned out. I don't know if it's an old medicine bottle or what. 

But we DEFINETLY know what THIS BOTTLE was used for! LOL

we find lots of bottles

Someone liked Pepsi, someone liked Coke! LOL

I guess working out in the hot fields, I wouldn't care WHICH, would you?

Now I'm craving a Co-Cola, and I haven't had one of THOSE IN YEARS!! LOL

Its May now!

 It's been a long time since I posted. 

We've had some big losses and I'm trying to get back to my blogging. In the meantime, I've been reading all yours, and commenting as much as I can.

Hope you can be patient with me about not commenting as much.

If you know me, you know Easter is my most favorite holiday. This year's was really sad. But I did try my best.

Palm Sunday

We did have a nice ham supper on Easter, and our traditional coconut cake. I really didn't make pictures of anything else

This past Sunday after church, we enjoyed a trip to Beaufort.

So many pretty flowers in bloom!

I love seeing interesting old architecture!

The air was heavy with the fragrance of jasmine

It was cascading down fences and walls

I always like to make pictures of the bridge and the river

Downtown scenes:

The weather was perfect.......sunny with a crisp, cool breeze off the river

Gorgeous old stove!

fluffy blooms

the magnolias have bloomed out

love these yellow cannas!

so many old historic houses to see

some not in the best shape! LOL

And...........in the midst of the grief...........there was great joy!

THEY KEEP ME SO BUSY!

also want to wish y'all a happy happy Mothers Day!

Have a great weekend!
