Rust-ic Photography

Do you remember where you were on 9/11? I do. I was in band class in 8th grade. I did not fully understand at the time what had happened that day. But 2 years later, I was standing in a mall in NYC overlooking Ground Zero. And even then, I'm not sure I fully understood.

As an adult, now a volunteer at the Air Force Museum, I have learned the full story. I have met people who were there, I even got to listen to a lecture from a guy who was LITERALLY IN THE ROOM when it happened and he had to monitor the President and everyone else.

Now all these years later, I still find myself crying when the topic comes up. The lives lost. The full cost of human tragedy.

At the museum, until the end of the month is the Flag. With the names and countries of all lost that fateful day.

We spent the afternoon watching the Clodbuster Base Ball Club play the Champion City Reapers in a fantastic game of Base Ball.

Bomberger Park, part of St. Anne's Hill Historic District - Dayton, Ohio is the first park in Dayton, was a lovely spot to watch the game.

Huzzahs all around for a great game!

And thank you to the kind player and wife who answered some questions and gave Brandon a tutorial on bats and base balls!

We then finished up the day for an early dinner at The Silos, which I do not recommend at all if you love good food LOL. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The atmosphere was great too.

And no good day or adventure is complete without some rust, so I snagged a picture of the pole from the cage.

God Bless the USA!

Hey Yall. Sorry this is a day late. There is a lot going on in my life at the moment.
Anymahoo....did yall even want to do a monthly contest? I'll leave it up to you this month!

While I don't have any rust to show off this time, *shame on me*, I have to give a shout out to my incredible Husband Brandon.
My biggest supporter...and wallet...and honestly the best dog dad 3 spoiled beagles could ask for.

So for his day, I bought him a ride in Al Capone's Packard. No better way to celebrate really!

Up close and personal pictures of today's finds.

Please, let me know what you think! Would love the feedback!

I can't say too much yet, because I have to get home and situated, but: Brandon and I have been garage sale-ing today and found some great Rust-ic finds!

I want to set up at craft shows and whatnot maybe not next year, but the year after, so I'm starting to piece together displays and bits and bobs to go with.

We spent about 25$ and found some great things. I'm very excited!

We are still out and about, but once I'm home, I'll post pics! Stay Tuned!
