Rusty Stuff and Wisconsin Barns for Fourth of July

 Lead Window Weights, Rope, Electrical Cord
See the Red, White, & Blue?
(Use Your Imagination)
I did not arrange this junk. This photo was taken 'as is.' I just happen to like the way it was lying.


 Padlock Hanging on the Inside of a Truck Box



 The Neighbor's Granary

Last year, just about every square inch of land around that granary was cleared of trees, brush, etc., then tilled and made into cropland.

Happy Independence Day early, all you rubbish lovers.
