One of the things that travels with me everywhere, however temporary the digs, is a horseshoe I found out walking with my grandmother many years ago. We found lots of horseshoes over the years but this one, for some reason, she told me must be nailed over the door of my forever home. It never has been but when I find that place I will know because the horseshoe will ask to be nailed above it’s door π
That second image of the glistening red Camellia is gorgeous… and yet, I find myself strangely drawn to the mysterious beauty of the Dark Sparkle image…
The beauty after the rain! π
Have you been able to mow yet?

I did, on Saturday, all except maybe an 1/8th. Only very rough, but at least it might be better if I can get out again this weekend.

Thanks Osyth. I loved finding them, over the early years, in the small creek that edges my property. Must have been a blacksmith upstream at sometime.

I’m with Osyth. Those horseshoes and that wonderful bit of wood. Gorgeous texture…

Thank you Brian. I do love some scavenged dead tree in my garden. And the rust is made to go with weathered wood.

Haha, yes, sometimes what we like is inexplicable. Dark Sparkle is the same flower, just has no colour π
