Bells, old cars, flowers and a dramatic late summer sunset
A swing through Lincoln County Arkansas produces some cool images, a dramatic sunset, and old car and truck, an old church bell and more. See the stories that go with the pictures at Corndancer dot-com and Weekly Grist for the Eyes and Mind.

The timing was just right. A nearly spent thunderstorm between you and the setting sun. Spectacular.

Not far from the Ford was this old Dodge bob-truck suffering the same fate.
At some point, the decision was made that the buillding was no longer worth the trouble to save it.
These old chairs were the precursors to the common metal folding chairs we see today. They were heavy, cumbersome and for the most part, not comfortable.
Going, going, gone. Fall is on the way.
