To me it looks like it fell off a vine. Maybe I detect a few more cucumbers still hanging above it. And after she found her true love, (cucumbers) there was no need to consummate the union, so he remained a virgin.

Random barn find.

Not exactly photos. These are for Baz and any other surfers, and I suspect the rest of you may appreciate them for one reason or another.

Does anyone know what these four buildings are for? They are on Colorado Highway 470 to the south west of down town Denver. They are not homes for sure.

Cellular Village
Here beside the highway on its west side are a group of little wooden cottages, each square with a wraparound porch and a glassed-in cupola "widow's watch" on top. It's a peculiar little village, where there are no roads, no sidewalks, and nobody is ever there. That's because this is a village of cellular phone towers, where these buildings were constructed to conceal them. The first was designed and built by US West Cellular in 1994, and soon other cell phone companies settled at this village, including NexTel and Western Wireless, building a total of 4 cottages through the 1990s. The transmission antennae are housed at the peak of each building.

One of my first bought LP's and still a favorite

A great picture too., I have no idea who's who. I assume Eagles, and others unknown to me. Still it defined that particular album, and I still listen to it. Often.
