Three More Late Summer Randoms

Random-osity

The Good: I picked up this handcrafted pitcher at the Yard Crawl in August. It was locally made in Strasburg, which has a long history of pottery-making.

The Random:  I went to another foot doctor for a second opinion as to whether I should have surgery for a bone spur. (I wrote about it previously, item 2.) She said it would make me much more comfortable so I guess I'll do it.  The pain has been much less since I started spraying "magnesium oil" on it, but after walking about ten minutes it feels heavy and tired. 

In the meantime much of my photography has been done from the car because I'm not walking long distances. I try to remember that (1) my point and shoot doesn't see exactly what I see so I have to hold the camera up enough to keep the window frame out of the picture, (2) shoot through an open side window when possible because the windshield is tinted, and (3) hold the camera level to avoid weird-looking angles.

Here's a drive-by picture of a barn near Front Royal for The Barn Collective.

The Fun: I saw this RV up on Skyline Drive. I think it would be fun to stay up there in an RV. I've done tent camping before but I think it might be too difficult in my present condition.

The doggy in the window is a painting!
