Everyday Pleasures #8

Goodness gracious it's Friday already!
Old structures is what I am focusing the lens on for this weeks "Everyday Pleasures".
Hope you enjoy!


Nearby barn with an interesting roof and hex signs.


Little red barn shack, down by the railroad tracks


One of our old blue bird houses that Hubby built with the girls when they were little.

*swoon* I absolutley love old buildings-it's the downside of the rapid expansion movement that is AZ. The good news is I am headed for a Sedona road trip and my new issue of Somerset w/your feature is neatly tucked away for my viewing pleasure. Congratulations!

Seeing photos of barns is fun for me because I don't see them in my area. I adore the little windows in the second barn. My fave photo is the blue bird house. Adorable! When I read 'blue bird house' I was wondering why the house wasn't blue. Now I get it. It's for Blue Birds! Gotcha!

Oh so pretty! I love that lush bird house! And that barn looks like it has an adventure inside!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!!

I love old barns like that, but from the outside. When I go in, I get all creeped out by spidery things! Do you still get dwellers in the bird house? You can never get tire of that.

We have a steady stream of house finches that live in our bird houses, spring through summer. Right now there are some little babies inside this one that are getting ready to fly. We had hoped to have some bluebirds occupy the houses, but so far none have moved in, although they were actively looking inside them this year! We heard that they like their homes pretty well aged, and clean. We can no longer clean this particular house do to the trumpet vine. Still we get a real kick out of the finches, they are so cute when they peek their little heads out! I need to get a picture of that!

Love the barns, but that old blue bird house is so sweet. My husband did the same thing with our boys, and then with our daughter, they built a "condo" for the birds. lol
