On a recent trip to Alabama I saw this little Ford tractor 'hiding' in this small shed!

  :)

 

Have to admit it would be better protected in a bigger space!

I found this amusing so I snapped a picture.

Only later did I realize how that dark blue contrasts so nicely with the weathered boards of the shed!

I've always loved seeing old barns...well, new ones, too, but the old ones have more charm for me.  I always look for barns to capture in my camera lens on our trips to Alabama.

This is one we saw on our trip this year.

This time of year my  flower gardens have become untidy and overgrown!

To the butterflies, though, the nectar is still as sweet!

I often come upon these guys when venturing out among the flowers, too! Colorful to see but I don't get too close!

• • June Kellum This takes me back to my son's teenage years. He would always get me to listen to music bands that he liked! "Mom, you'll like this," he would say!...Usually my boy, Chris, was right!! He was right this time! Neil Young is unique and special to me!

My kids-(from my FB ppage)

June Kellum

 

I'll always need my children no matter what age I am... My children have made me laugh...made me cry, stressed me out, Wiped my tears... Hugged me tight... Seen me fall... Cheered me on... Kept me strong... And drove me a little CRAZY at times! But, my children are a promise from God that I will have a friend forever! Put this as your status if you have been blessed with great kids!

Camera Critters~ 8-20-11

~Alli's final visit with the puppies together (for awhile)~

~My Camera Critters ~

My granddaughter has been home for the summer-a welcomed break before starting nursing classes. She had to go back to Orlando yesterday!  :(

OK-We all had one more fun time with our 2 puppies-and for good measure, dear old Cassie was home, too, from her travels ( long distance trucker) with my Son-in Law, Marc!

 

(Marc, with the dogs)

(Above photos-Alli and Joy-Alli and Dan)

  The doggies all had a good visit...well, the 2 young ones did anyway. Cassie just takes those energetic babies in stride!

More pics of 'Emmy,' my poodle and 'Cooper,' Alli and Tina's dog. 'Coop' is a long haired/ wire haired Doxie. The big girl is Cassie-a sweet old girl.

 

It's non-stop play when those puppies get together...

'Coop' likes 'Emmy's' toys and sometimes tries to hide them. I think he's trying to figure out a way to get them out the door and to his house!

:)

  Emmy gives him a run for his money- and has, right from the start,

(at 8 weeks old)

but Cooper still has the advantage.

(He's over a year old now and she's about 4 mo.)

They both loved that Raccoon toy and Coop figured out how he could keep it away from Emmy. He can jump on the couch- even going to the back of it... Emmy, so far, is unable to jump that high!  Cooper seems to gloat with this feat, just barks, seemingly in glee, at Emmy's inability to reach him!

LOL- But sometimes  a stuffed raccoon can get away from, even, a skilled guy like our Cooper!

Cooper might say he did that on purpose-out of sympathy for the little girl-LOL-I don't believe him! He's just trying to hold on to his reputation of being 'Top Dog' around here! 

Anyway...

for the moment little 'Emma Rose' is victorious!

 :)

 Love,

Junie Rose

On a recent trip to Alabama we saw another of those unique, scrap metal roosters.  This is the 4th one I've come across in recent times.  :) I find them amusing and always try to get a picture of them. 

This time we had to back-track, as I didn't see him in time to stop! LOL-My husband didn't mind....well not too much, anyway!

(He's a good guy, my Charlie!)

*This is a different kind of rooster art work (made of car bumpers) that I always look for on our trip to Al- This one is displayed in front of an art studio near Troy Alabama*
