What I saw recently

Some pics from around town over the last week or two or three . . .

 Quite a catch

 A flathead catfish

 A big 'un

 The tying of the shoe

Abandoned stroller - and bike (It's there, deep in the foliage.)

 Abandoned ancient technology

 Abandoned modern footwear

 This way 'n' that

 At Laurel Hill

 At CHS

 Y ?

 Biking is good exercise

 Now we know why the rates went up - to pay for the paint.
