COBBLESTONE BUILDING IN MY TOWN

I did not know this cobblestone store was in our village and I bet I walked by it fifty million times and never noticed it.  Richard, who collects pictures of cobblestone buildings on his blog e-mailed me and told me about it.  Went and got pictures this morning.  Part of it is cobblestone and part is wood.

MY FIRST WINTER FARM OF 2017

This is my first winter farm of 2017.  It is an Englisher farm.  I drive by this most everyday and I like this farm the best of most of the others in the area.  I call it my Courier and Ives farm.  Hope you enjoy it, too.

GOD'S CREATURES - WOODPECKER

Here is the woodpecker enjoying breakfast outside my apartment door.  He is one of the few birds that lets me open the door and take his picture.  I guess food comes first.

WINTER STREAM - SHORTSVILLE, NY

I am always looking for streams, creeks, etc. to take pictures of, but with the heat of last summer, they were few and far between. I now know why Water Street in Shortsville, NY has that name after finding this stream running beside it.

FIRST BARNS OF 2017

Here are my first barns of this year.  Better get out taking more pictures because I don't have many barns.
