This is the back of a building I think of as the "Dime Store." It is now a sort of bakery / cafe. What I wonder is if they let that bit unpainted on purpose or maybe ran out of paint. But wouldn't you paint from the top down?


Catholic cemetery. I'm glad I took my bike, because most of the time we were there there was no snow.

I have a wrecked motorcycle that I'll trade for a wheel chair.

It's been a while since any welding has gone on here.
