Round hay bales in a field by the river

Fading Echinacea blooms

Welcome to Marshall, NC.

It was at least cooler here

A wide place in the road of life, methinks

These flowers were so pretty beside the hay field.

Beautiful and cooling pics. Already 100 here in the flatlands today. Wish I were tubing down the river. And the Star Diner must have a million stories. I enjoyed your river.

I only wish, Scarlett, that I could post the smells here too.

Mission

Good to see ya in these parts Grif. There is rafting right below town, come on over and we can go together. It is hot here today too already. The air is thick enough to slice with an ax....

Glad to see ya Janie. I checked these and they all enlarged for me.
Harry dear, if you ever desire to leave Texas, you can stroll right along beside me seeing this for real...

Stunning pictures, Mission. I particularily love the shot of the bridge and the one of the round bale in the field, they remind me of the country around here.

I got so many, Torman, that is getting hard to pick them to post here.
I do aim to please the eyes....

Mission

I get excited when I notice one of your montages, they seem to arrive just when I need a peek of my old stomping grounds...your peeks are better than my actual old stomping grounds : )
That shot of the round hay bale I could look at for ages, so timeless and peaceful.
thanks for this!

Just Thinking...

July 21, 2011 12:56 PM

JT, the field did go a long ways and I had to find a good angle to get as many bales as I could. It was long and narrow.
I still wish I could add the smells of the hay. It was sharp to the nose as bleu cheese....

Mission

Cannot wait to get back up there in October...Your photos provoke a longing.

I wish I could load up so many on this site and bring them here to enjoy Linnn. It is a nice scenic place.....

Oh, I love the hay bales and the cool water picture the best. All of them are nice, but those two are my favorites. Thank you, Mission.

That gas station brings back great memories, and if I were you, I would be taking pictures while sitting in the river water. Man, that looks cool~~~

July 21, 2011 01:59 PM

I'd like to drag you up Scanner and let ya sit with me. I laid down the camera and waded in. The water was nice. I am sure I will be there later today wading some more.

Mission

July 21, 2011 02:07 PM

Lovely. I'm on a tributary of the Rocky Broad and just might go wade for a spell.

July 21, 2011 08:14 PM

Hugs dear, I hope these brought a smile for you today, hay bales or not.

Mission

All of these are lovely, but the pictures of the river itself are gold to me today. Thanks, Mission.
