City Daily Photo & Live Every Moment - Independence Day at Stout Farms

I love a blue sky, but the top 2 pics just needed something...

Can't remember where I got the texture in the 1st pic,
but on the 2nd image I used Shadowhouse Creations 'We The People' texture.
mouse over both to see originals



Happy Independence Day United States of America!
235 years!

Barn Charm ♥39♥

Welcome to this week's Barn Charm!

I honestly don't know how this old barn is still standing...
the boards are too few & far between.
I found it last week when I topped a hill on an old dirt road
& there it was, right there in the middle of my view.


Thanks so much to everyone for joining - I enjoy seeing all these old barns each week!

Mouse Over the image above

He walked into the frame in the 1st shot, but I couldn't resist including these shots of this man
snapping his own shots of these HUGE wheels!

The Last Steam Engine Train visited Poplar Bluff, Missouri
& my daughter called me at work to tell me to get my butt down to the train depot to get some shots,
so, luckily, I was able to leave work at lunch...
BUT,
it was one of those days that I was running late that morning & didn't grab my camera! *gasp* =0
I sped home, grabbed my camera, & before I could get back downtown I'm getting a text saying,
"Hurry Up! It's HOT out here, woman!"
100 degrees - She wasn't exaggerating!!!
I got parked & found her, her boyfriend, his dad, & all kinds of others snapping away!

It's taken a week to get these pics & the entire post the way I want them & there's 2 collages
because I JUST. COULD. NOT. DECIDE. on which one I liked best,
so, you get both! Which do you like best?

One of the 2 pics I shot of Kes was her asking me, "where do you want me?"
& the 2nd, "Ok, that's good w/ me as long as I can get outa here, QUICK!"
100 degrees... HOT!

Moral of this story?
ABC!
Always
Bring
Camera!

The Creative Exchange - Bixby, Missouri

Directly across the highway from yesterday's Barn Charm post barn was this convenience store,
& although I was car sick during this trip, I was able to get a few shots of this old place.

General Mercantile, Livery Stable, Wade Mansion Antiques, Railway & Telegraph Co,
& End of the Line Hotel.
Something else is listed above 'Railway', but I don't remember what it said...

Couldn't resist this old gas pump...
