photo challenge: OLD

an OLD wagon wheel

OLD buttons

OLD cars

Donna from Made In Heaven is the host for this Brenda Photo Challenge...thanks Donna for selecting such a fun theme!
OLD is everywhere!
I love old things and can spend hours upon hours just browsing through old treasures wondering about the stories behind them.
Old, vintage, antique...all wonderful, curious, mysterious things that link us to the past.

Ah, Joni, that is lovely...I so love your OLD photos...those buttons look very special, and remind me I have a large jar of them somewhere. I love to look at them...must get them out!

Thanks for your visit to my blog. Lovely to hear from you...I am missing Abbey already, which is understandable..and will miss her for a long while to come, I know!

In fact I am about to put up my post on OLD shortly, and decided to do it on Abbey...I hope I don't make too many people too sad! But it is cathartic to get out the pikkies and stories about her!

Thank you for reminding me with your comment ((hugs)). Smile.

I saw this on another blog and almost jumped in as a lover of OLD. I think I will just sit back and enjoy all of the wonderful photos. Especially yours. :)

Love them Miz Joni! Where would we be without old things to be able to understand part of our history? I'd love to be sporting around in one of those old cars!

I so wish I had all the old buttons my grandma used to keep in her little tin. I had no appreciation for them then...and now they're gone.

Great pictures!

You sure do have some wonderful old treasures

Rick said...

Probably not a treasure but taken a gander at my profile pic and add it to your collection of photos that could be labeled old. (At lest getting there.)

Nice pics BTW
