On my road trip, we visited an antique place in an old building used to process tobacco. It was a beautiful old building divided into lots of individual little booths. In another post, I will take you old-timers down memory lane! I certainly saw things I remembered, some of which I still have!
Any clues? This time, I know, only because the tag said!
No cheating on enlarging to read the tag!

I agree and did a road trip today with a friend and no squirrels were involved!

Yesterday, a friend and I decided to take a mini road trip. One of the stops was a local farm with absolutely gorgeous plants and a fantastic shop filled with homemade goodies, including fudge and produce. My friend indicated that the older lady who greeted us had been there for over five years!
This fixture was in the middle of the lawn. I thought it was an outhouse, but why the shelves around it?
So, do you have any clues as to what else it might be?

Looks like a nice park.
Yes, actually it is 2. One on each side. Lots of people, so felt pretty safe.

Thank you.
I used Photoshop Elements.
I used the filter, find edges.
Then I used layers to add colours, using different blending modes so that the colour would blend, using them at different opacities.
Then I went into the Elements Fx windows and tried one until I found one that I liked.
Easy, but sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't.

Wow, a lot of work, but it certainly was well worth the effort!

As I finished working with my guys over in the concrete section, which runs between the two pieces of property, I spotted a small squirrel. Approaching it, he sat a bit huddled, so I gently tossed a peanut, and he took it. He, however, seemed small, and his approach to eating it was interesting, as most squirrels sit up. So I stayed with him for a bit and watched him eat. The next few nuts took so long that I cracked the shell for him. I have to be honest. I'm not sure if I didn't slip back into soft focus on a few.
We seem to have several youngsters around, and I just saw my original tree-hole babes playing together. It's nice to see that they are still together. In their last shot, the little stinker moved, but I decided to share as it was sweet to see them together. The green is strong and strange as it was shot later in the day. I tried to edit it in Topaz, but the color correction was off. I'm still struggling with getting my PC and Topaz in sync with each other.
Today, I also did some more store flowers, but I need to review them. I don't want to bore all of you with squirrels!
Hope you enjoy!

ALL beautiful Barb but my faves are 8 and 10, probably because we had 3 pairs of them that chose to live on our pond in Tn for years and became great pets.
Thanks Jo! Always so great to hear from you. That must have been really great and such beauty! Hope you are doing well!
