I came home last night to find that a tree fallen in the back yard. I wanted to removed it fora while but there’s always something living in it. Well no more. It was too hot this morning to removed the debris so it’s still there.
I cleaned the office yesterday. This old computer desk now holds my matting and mailing supplies. The desk used to house some old printers.
This is the old ringer on our back porch. It’s an old metal phone bell. After into the house. I decided to clean it. it was covered in cob webs. I cleaned it off took parts off and cleaned more. Thinking it was the door bell I kept pushing the button but it never rang. Then a few days later I was out back when there was a loud metal clanging sound. I went to the front yard nobody there. I went inside and there was a new message on the answering machine. “heys that a phone bell” before analog and digital phones that’s what phones sounded like. And sometimes I hear the same ring used as a ringtone.

This is my new camera accessory. It’s a walking staff monopod. One of my friends made this with an old metal tripod top and a piece of sourwood. I used it all month at the ren faire. This is how I got the great joust action shots.
To honor Veterans the Jousters carried the flags of the branches of the military forces. Here the jousters exit the tournament field one is holding the American Flag.
