Now that's a barn door!

I pass by this every time I visit my in-laws' farm and it always makes me smile.

Too bad more people don't commission murals. So many objects in our daily life could benefit from a little visual interest... tractor trailers, box store rooftops, or just the occasional barn door.

Re-purposing is so awesome!

My mind doesn't always visualize the 2nd or 3rd use in objects, but I always appreciate a good version when I see it. This horn turned water fountain is the perfect example.

Farewell, old bridge




Staunton's old railroad bridge
before it was removed (duh)

Farewell, old C&O pedestrian railroad bridge. I hope your preservation committee does you proud!

You can see the plans for rehabilitation of the bridge here, along with some cool old pics and original documents.

It's impossible not to love a town that has this view from the parking garage.
