Friday Hunt 2016-6

I am back for Teresa's fun meme Friday Hunt. I like the eclectc themes, and today I am looking at archived and current pics to meet the theme. So here it is: 
Starts with F: For me, this goes to my second wheelchair driver vehicle, a 1998 Ford E-150 Club Wagon. I took delivery on May 28, 1998 and donated it to a non-profit in May 2010 with over 158,000 miles (and would have easily run another 100,000, but I needed an upgrade to a more manageable van). It was a beast and ate plenty of gasoline, but what price independence? I took many a pic of this over the years and present them today!


Week’s Favorite: Patti captured today on today’s snowy afternoon. As a wheelchair user, the cold of snow and winer keeps me indoor on days like this. Yet, the birds do offer a reminder that the warmth of Spring is not really all that far away so no more complaining is allowed! The structure in the back is not a barn - just a suburban storage shed with a gambrel roof…
Negative Space: Forgetting the snow, I don’t know if this shot of the moon basking in clouds over our home is a look into the abyss - but I’ll take it as a metaphor into the emptiness of space. Or something like that…it was an interesting shot taken on last November 25. Thanks again Teresa!

  1. It's true, Ralph, that spring is more than half way here since the winter solstice! It looks like you have more snow than we do here in Canada, though!

  2. I love the little birds in the snow....wonder what kind of morsels they were hoping to find.

  3. I had no idea what to post for negative space! You did great with your photo. I love it! I also love the snow and birds, no wonder it's your favorite. Your Ford was a good servant and well deserved to be passed on to the next user.

  4. Independence is truly important! Spring is not too far off if you believe the groundhog. I actually saw a robin on Tuesday. That was a surprise. The moon shot is gorgeous! Thanks so much for joining me in Friday's Hunt.

  5. I really like your week's favorite...such a great picture! I'm happy that spring is getting closer, although it means a lot more work. The moon shot...wow! I can never get good moon shots. And hooray for your faithful van. Sounds like the way we hang on to cars around here.
