Had a great time catching up and looking through his vast treasure trove of architectural goodies again! |
Found some great stuff on this trip (it's about time!) and even made it home before dark. |

~It's all about the thrill of the hunt and cruisin' backroads searching for rusty gold. Rummaging for cool pieces of antiquity is only part of the adventure. Next comes the challenge of re-purposing into new creations with updated functionality. Favorite finds are architectural iron, wood salvage, industrial, lighting fixtures, automobilia, farm salvage, and old hardware. But the real story, which always transcends the pickin', is about the interesting people and the unique places discovered along the way!~

Looks like a great trip. Love your photos. How do you stop often enough to take such great shots? The long horn is awesome, and the old buildings could tell all kinds of stories. Still trying to work it out for Bella Rustica.
We love our drives in the country along Tennessee roads too....go see where we've been in a new brochure....www.americanantiquetrail.com

Looks like such a fun trip filled with good stuff. I always want to pull over and explore in old buildings, but am afraid of getting in trouble. That and snakes and other critters that wanna eat me...
Don't you just love Bowman? My new favorite place to go when I want to meander rural Georgia. You had a lovely day to do so and just the meandering is so good for the soul. My honey and I are already planning our apples and antiques tour in about 4 weeks. Can't wait
