Personal Favourites from my moblog
"And as you cross the circle line,
Well the ice wall creaks behind
You're a rabbit on the run.
And the silver splinters fly
In the corner of your eye,
Shining in the setting sun.
Well do you ever get the feeling
That the story's too damn real
And in the present tense.
Or that everbody's on the stage
And it seems like you're the only
Person sitting in the audience
Skating away, skating away, skating away
On the thin ice of the new day"

Farmall does rock, George. It's a nifty piece of work.
Hahaha, Joker. Yep, only here. It's a very Dakota sort of thing. :D
two faved shots
brilliant shots and although I know it has been said before... only there...
From the thumb, I'd assumed it was a model, maybe on a mailbox, that sort of scale.
This though, this is marvelously bonkers. ND has the space for such things - on a street of british terraces, we just don't have the room. ;)
Hope it can cope with the winter gales...

Thanks, Hildegard. Yep, room is plentiful. From what I understand, that tractor has been there for many a year. The flag is a good example of how lesser materials fare in the elements. I would like to find out *why* it's on a pole. :D
Thanks, Mara.
I hate seeing flags that tattered still on display. In some parts of the country, I'd worry the owner was proud that he (or she) was so dedicated to the flag, instead of being ashamed not to have taken better care of it.
When you describe 60 MPH winds, though, I wonder how long any flag lasts in those conditions.
Caine says:
Nick, I don't think any disrespect was or is intended, that flag has probably been there a long time, and the weather is tough on fabrics.
I think so too, Para. It looked like things used to be mounted on the other two poles. I wonder what they were.
Heh, around here you never know, Looker. :D
