LOL, Michelle! Thanks much . . .

I spend most of what free photography time I have in the Coloma area and have developed an interest in capturing old wood and rusty "parts" until the flowers start blooming. It's interesting to me how "slapped together" these machines are when you really look at them in "chunks" . . . but it got the job done.

I caught this one between cold rain blasts. Now if I can only find some gold, I could quit work and get blissfully lost in photography!

Best regards,
