Retro Mailboxes

I was in a building in a small town near Abilene and they had a wall of retro items on display.

These two old mailboxes were on the wall.  I wish we still had these for our mail.

An Abandoned Bridge 

Riding through some country roads about an hour east of Abilene, we came across this bridge.  

The framework was still there, but the bridge headed off at a different angle over a creek.

Three Grandchildren

Went to the zoo today.  One family visiting from Alaska the other lives local.

The kiddos are looking at the grey heron exhibit.

What cute kids.

Such a pretty scene.

Theo of Golden

I belong to a book group that meets once a month.  This is the book we're reading now.  I never heard of it until now.  I've been trying not to buy books (which isn't really working very well) so that I don't have  extra "things" in my house to clean out, or to leave behind for my kiddos to clean out.

I borrowed this book from one of the other members......

If you haven't read this book, get yourself a copy.  It's fantastic.  The writing is wonderful and the story is great.  I'm only halfway through it.  I'm reading it fast and then slow. I want to know what happens but I want it to last.  I have to give it back to the owner but I think I'll purchase my own copy so I can re-read it whenever I want to.  

Rating it from one to ten, it's a 10+++++++, just sayin'.

Spring Softball Game

This church softball team is conferring before the game begins on a beautiful spring evening.  

They finished their warm-up and are just waiting to see who bats first.

A Bull Statue

While waiting for the IRS to open, I saw this bull statue. 

So interesting.

Colored Circles

I went into a building I've never been in before in Abilene.  I needed to go to the IRS office.  While waiting for it to open after their lunch break I wandered around and saw this circle sculpture.  

Pretty interesting, right?
