Barn and the Blue Sky

     Though this barn is abandoned and ready to fall down the owner still maintain the surrounding pretty neat!

 

These photo was taken in my hometown in the Philippines. We always see this scenario every where and I felt bad for them.


                                               Linking to BLUE MONDAY and BARN CHARM

I love barn scenes even through they make me sad seeing one in this condition. So much unrest all over the world.

Is there a lot of poverty in the Phillipines? Both the barn and its manicured environs, and the people just hanging around (?homeless?) made me a bit sad...nice captures

beautiful photos Kim! the first one is so relaxing, i love this scene in the country so peaceful. and the second one is what you call Life. sad but that is life, we need to feed ourselves in order to survive. i always remind hubby and kids not to waste food because there so many hungry people out there.. but u know.. americans are so spoiled. it make me feel so sad that some people have no idea how lucky they are.

She still has some majesty to her---I'm sure she was a beauty in her prime years! Beautiful setting.

Second picture certainly fits a blue Monday. Tough to see.

Great old barn, but it's not often you see a barn in that condition on such well kept property. Nice find!

Love the clouds in that first shot...the poor barn needs a lot of TLC but I like it anyway.

The remains of this barn make a great photo, especially with the well-manicured landscape.

I am surprised the barn is still standing. Looks like a strong wind would do it in.

Not often that you see a nicely kept place with a sad barn like that.

I like old barns, Kim. This one looks special.

Yes, it is too bad that some people don't have much to do. Or perhaps it they don't have much to do it with.

Forgot to mention that I don't like word verification either. But I had to resort to it because a robot spammer is hitting my blog five to eight times a day with vulgar, disgusting advertisements and code words, etc. Comment moderation did not stop them from reaching my eyes but the word verification stops them in their tracks. Sorry.

The grounds really are well taken care of, but that poor barn has seen better days, hasn't it! LoL!

Thank you =)

Unusual to see blue sky through the barn like that. I'm sure it has served its purpose well.

As with any internet transaction, be certain web sites in places you divulge financial or personal data feel secure
payday loans no credit check
the prepayments of the imf loan apparently suggest why these tactics, along with the defaults,
been employed.

Shopping With Friends

                                   The whole day I was out. Yup, as in literally out of our house. Because me and my friends were having a shopping Filipino food mode and lunch after. Thanks to Ms. L for driving us and preparing our lunch because we had a sumptuous lunch as well as a good laugh. Here are the photos that we took.

Couple's Corner: Jealousy

Image
So it's another couple's corner meme once again and this time it is all about jealousy. I am thinking of the 8 years that I have known my hubby (2 years of chatting, 1 year engaged, 5 years of marriage) wala namang grabeng nangyari sa amin in terms of jealousy but ONCE and will tell the story later so hang on hehe. I am the kind of person who trust a person without any doubt, even with friends what you see is what you get but if you broke that trust I would never care nor look at you as in talagang wala na. But in marriage pala we can't just say "that's it" or "this is it", we have to listen to one another and trust again and  again and again. I look as jealousy or selos as like a flame  that keeps the fire from BURNING HOT!! bwehehehe!! -wink-wink- Hubby is not a jealous type nor I (well not much). His ex-wife is still living and I never get jealous because I am much 1000% prettier and younger than her bwahahaha!! Kidding aside hubby don't h...

It's yellow

Image
Six more weeks and it will be Spring wohooo!! By that time I am kind of busy scratching (like a chicken) trying to find sprouting plants specially tulips and some other early plants and flowers on the ground. This year I am excited to see my dahlias, peonies and hollyhocks blossom once again. Last year I took a shot of my first ever Dahlia and never expected to see a humongous one. The saying "expect the unexpected" is what I  remember when I saw my first Dahlia. This picture is the bud, ain't that huge already. The other day when it starts to warm up (25F that's our warm or heat wave here in MI lol) the snows on top of the roof started to melt, so it formed  long icicles. I so then thought of taking a picture for macro shot. When I saw the result in my camera the light from the window came out yellow, a great entry for MELLOW YELLOW MONDAY !! ^_^
