Unique! What's the story behind this shot Joan? Great eye for noticing and capturing the shot! - Esther #7177084Joan E. Hoffman February 17, 2009
Thanks Jeanine and Esther!No real storey Esther... we were out looking for a special tire for our 5th (we had one that was separating)... and this new small office building was right behind the tire shop we stopped at... It had two of these big checked walls... I thought it was rather lovely and inventive! #7177290
