#WeekMforMemories #AlphabetChallenge The restored men's bathroom in the Historic Hermitage Hotel circa 1910 -- Both male and female tourists are encouraged to take a peek when the coast is clear.

a view of the green/black art deco style restored men's restroom in the National Historic Landmark: The Hermitage Hotel, Nashville, Tennessee, 2009. Green pedestal sinks, black chairs on the shoeshine stand, and black & green striped walls. #travel

Wall Plaque reads: "By popular request, men and women alike in the Nashville area have asked that we preserve this men's room and restore it back to its original art deco luster remodeled and reconfigured in the 1930's. This room has been the site of several music videos and numerous legislative deals. The color scheme has encouraged as many women as men to steal a look inside."

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekWforWacky whatcha think of this #upcycling? (spotted in a shop somewhere off the Natchez Trace, 2010)

wooden chairs that incorporate unexpected elements. one has golf clubs instead of a wooden back, another has added horseshoes for embellishments & what I believe are croquet stakes for the back

The farmers are out in force these days #ThankAFarmer (they were even working on Easter)

farmers working at night to prepare the fields for this growing season. lighted farm equipment (and a couple of trucks too, if I remember rightly) on the fields in the country with the sky somewhat illuminated in the background from a city in the distance.
