Theme Day...My corner local shop

I am not officially on Theme Day this month but this is the local bar in the town next to Inverness (Inverness has no industry unless you count the golf course!). This building has been in Palatine for a very long time. Enjoy theme day here!

A lonley shepard's hook

I was practicing night shots and took this of my plant hanger. I just liked the way it looked. It will have plants on it this weekend....finally it is warm enough to plant my annuals! Have a great weekend.

The Inverness Golf Club

I would love to take pictures of the golf club but if you enlarge the sign, it clearly says "Members Only" and we are not members. So, I limit myself to the outskirts that I can see from the road or private property. Truly, not that much of a law breaker!

A Water Tower

I drive by this every day and this day it was raining and it just caught my eye.

An unusual walkway

While I found this to be very unique, I also found it to be a bit short to walk under so I do wonder how people get to the front door without getting leaves in their hair, or getting their hair wet. (This was a house down in Champagne,Urbana, Il. which is where the University of Illinois is located.)

ABC Wednesday S is for Santas

It's ABC Wednesday over at Mrs. Nesbitt's place. Try and stop in and see what other participants have come up with. I have a friend who collects Santa's. She must have well over a hundred. These 3 handsome fellows sit at the end of her staircase...and yes she is the neighbor in the Victorian house.
(I am out of town today and tomorrow...thanks for stopping by and I will catch up when I get back!)

Happy Memorial Day!

It's Memorial Day today...the day we honor all the Veterans of Wars. We purchased a new flag as our other one was faded and frayed....and I will taking it to the VFW vets who have a program for disposing of old flags. Hope you all had a nice weekend...We had lovely weather for our Memorial Day picnic today!
