A Look into the Past...





"History with its flickering lamp stumbles along the trail of the past,
trying to reconstruct its scenes,
to revive its echoes, 
and kindle with pale gleams the passion of former days."
Winston Churchill


A glimpse into the saloon!!!

Yep...that's Miss Kelly...
She's not too sure what a saloon is...
she thought it was a Greenies bar...

    That is very intriguing reflection ; it is hard to get what is actually inside and outside... Excellent choice for the week !

      With that window in the back of the saloon...the light coming in makes it ver difficult to discern what's being reflected!!!

    And I don't know what a Greenies bar is...green doggie treats like I've seen?

    A Greenie is a dog treat...made in the shape of a toothbrush...(so to speak!)...it's made of all "green" food and is supposed to be good for their digestive track (and breath!)...which may or may not be the case...all I know is it's like doggie Cocaine!!! Our last dog was addicted to them, and Kelly loves them too!!!

    It's fun to explore old buildings from the past. You've captured some nice reflections.

    I love this reflection, you really need to stare at it for a while to understand the inside vs reflection.

    Beautiful composition!

    Kelly seems to be striking her The Thinker pose.

      I can't say that I've ever known Kelly to have deep thoughts William...although she does strike a pretty pose!!!

      I think in this case the ghost saloon is hanging out in Mammoth Margaret!!! But I did get an eerie sense of camaraderie...and I do think I heard a burp or two!!!

    I adore these kind of buildings with a history and I like to imagine how life must have been and who was living there!
