Stone Bench at Natural Bridge

A Stone Bench at Natural Bridge.
I feel that this picture doesn't do this bench justice.
It was very SHADY where this was taken.

Another Farmers Market bench-- playing Rune's Friday benches

This is such a gorgeous bench that I would have wanted to buy it if I had room for it on a patio, etc. Instead I bought a smaller one but you will have to wait to see that one until I get photos of it. Ü

PS I am camping for the next few days but I have scheduled benches daily AND this is my bench to paricipate in Rune's challenge on Fridays. I will visit everyone's benches that drops by while I am gone asap after my return.

Small Metal bench

Small but very nice metal bench. . .

Ironwork Rocker Bench

First I saw this gorgeous bench. . . it looks like it is also a rocker.

Then I tried to take a view of it with the matching table and chairs. . . but it is sorta dark.

Another view of the matching table and chairs. . . it's a nice set!

Two new leaves benches in downtown Portland

I was wandering around in Portland after I found out another friend, Fred, died. I had to do something new to take my mind off all my tears. He was the first person I met and who said hi to me when I moved in. He always called me "Pretty lady" and finally I figured out why. . . he couldn't rememebr my name! Ü Later he called me Paulie. I walked past this restaurant/bar and saw these two benches. They looked brand new! It was very sunny so it might be hard to see the wrought iron leaves -- you can see the reflection of them in the window of the building behnd them if nothing else. I enlarged them and could see more also. One day, I will find my way back there and try to get a better photo without so much sunshine interfering. Somehow, I think Fred was trying to add a bit of joy to my sad day.

Another "grape" bench

Another bench found at one of the wineries we visited.
Do you see the little grapes on the back, arms and legs?

Long, lonely bench

Looks like someone tried to put a little paint on it tho . . .
