Rusty Road Grader

Photo taken from outside the fence at the Uxbridge-Scott Museum

Although the museum was closed on a cold, sunny day in January, the grounds were open.  Apparently they always are!  But I didn't know that at first, so I took this first photo stretching to reach up with my camera over the fence.

Then I caught on and walked around the end of the fence to take more photos.

I think this may have been horse-drawn road grader, but perhaps it was also pulled by a tractor.


Looking at the front

I really like these shadows.
In celebration of the old and wonderful "stuff", I  am connecting to Rubbish Tuesday HERE.

Mid February

 Barn and chicken coop

Still winter here. The only noticeable sign of spring is the daylight hours that are becoming longer. That's a major plus as far as I'm concerned.

Some of you may recognize this barn and chicken coop as I have photographed them many times and posted them more than once. I like the weathered boards, the barn's stone foundation, the missing doors and boards on both, the chicken coop out in front facing the road and, this week, the snow on the roofs.

Somebody's home

I'm not sure who lives here but whoever it is wanted a bigger entrance way and is willing to do the reno.
