They don't make 'em like they used to...

Not the best composition...my apologies.

I spotted this old timer, did a quick u-turn and got a couple shots off with the telephoto.

Love the doe skin jacket!

Oh, and sweeping the leaves on his lawn is just...sweet.

Words to live by?

I do all three of those things!

I liked everything about this billboard (spotted in the Crappy Tire parking lot)....especially it's ransom note aesthetic! ^_^

Aaaand, done.

Here's the last pic from the Stonehurst patch, hope ya'll enjoyed 'em:

What's on This Weekend?

A bunch of neat stuff on offer this weekend. The Christmas Luncheon and Sale on Saturday is always a treat.

Looks like the New Ross Christmas Festival is on, meaning back to back turkey dinners on Saturday AND Sunday, yum!

I might have to check out the chowder supper in Riverport, since it's now in my 'hood.

As mayor Quimby would say: "say it frenchie.....say, chowdah!

This is one of the small hills on the Stonehurst road that is littered with brake burns, lotsa 'blobs' to be found!
