Decay









This week's challenge, created by Jorinde, was Decay. What an AWESOME challenge!!! Thanks, Jorinde!! Here are a couple of pictures from my stash that have something to do with decay...I think? I am going to work harder on finding more photo opps..I just haven't had the time with the girls going back to school this week. This would have been the perfect challenge to play with in New Mexico, as the entire TOWN my husband works in is decaying!!!! It's so nice to be home. Oh, Helen and Wendy, I already know I am a Dag...how could I resist a cemetery photo??? I thought it would be perfect! LOL!!!! Also, here's a picture of our rotting fence that needs to be replaced, a shot of my drowning house plant, our tree that 'looks' like decay, and the seriously decrepit Cadillacs at the Cadillac Ranch in Texas.

Great shots. The close ups are great but I really like the cars. I think they should be pink!

Wow I love that cemetary photo! What is with the Cadillacs??!! I've never heard of a Cadillac Ranch!! LOL! Great photos Karin.

I have to come here to answer your questionyou left on my blog. I wish I could throw shingles at them! My sister said I should just start picking them up and throwing them back into their yard! I'm afraid of my temper with them. If I snap it's not going to be pretty.....

I wish I could just call the cops... oh wait, they are the cops. Do you think that is why they do it? I do!

He's just a donut chaser!! He spends more time at home when he is supposed to be working. It would make things worse. Do you actually think they would listen to me over one of their own. I'm sorry I don't have that much faith in the police force.

Yeehaw!!!!! Come and be a Canadian with me! LOL! Calgary IS far from me, but I am always trying to convince hubby that we should move back that way. My sis is there and it is waaaay better than Ontario! Seriously. NEVER move to Ontario.

Wendy said...
