End of Winter Randoms, Woodstock.

Random-osity.

The Good: I enjoy outdoor art! This utility box was designed by Liam Shell. Cacti are not native to Virginia but the colors are delightful.

Sharing with Monday Murals.
The Random: After I ran some errands in Woodstock today, I drove down a country road to check out the scenery. This poor old barn has lost it's roof!

There were other barns in much better shape. I collected some for Tom's linkup and put them in a collage (or mosaic if you prefer), along with a view from Sheetz Mill Road.



The Fun: This guy saw me taking photos and came over to greet me. He seemed  like a friendly donkey and did not mind my taking his picture.

By the way, there are signs of spring here in the Shenandoah, but the weather forecast says we may get a snow storm. It doesn't feel likely because temperatures were quite warm today.

  3. Haha, I have seen a few barns around here without a roof! Love all the views in the collage - so peaceful! And I guess the donkey was glad to see a human being:):) Many thanks for linking up, as well as your comment (I don't celebrate St. Patrick's Day either! And I have a very think green sweater) Have a beautiful week!

  6. Great collection of randoms this week, the utility box is fun and I'm sure livens up the neighbourhood. I often see a pair of donkeys when out for a walk and always stop for a chat and to give them a handful of the grass that is always just out of their reach on the other side of the fence!
