Snap Shot Loc: California
 
To the right of the Hitching Post is a fenced in abode that every Yard Art photographer only dreams about! Inside resides an elderly Native-American lady with as much charm and wit as her collections! Her place immediately caught my eye when we pulled in to have dinner at the restaurant. I walked over to her home and saw her as she just arrived and was closing her gate. I asked if she would mind if I took some pictures. I love this place! Well, she lit up like a Christmas tree and was so grateful that someone finally wanted and cared to take an interest in her life-long creations that she welcomed me in with opened arms, a smile and a hug! I was guided through every nook and cranny both inside and out. She said she's been praying people would visit her place for years. Her little welcome sign went unnoticed. Take the time to see her, you'll be glad you did! It certainly made my day! And I know by her smile, it made hers as well!
Here are but a few of the 49 photos I took.

What a great opportunity, Bill. How lucky to be able to shoot someone's treasures. I wonder how long she's been collecting and where she found these items. Great shots, lots of detail, especially in the downloads. Thanks for sharing.
