I took this image back in June at Rollag during Steam School.  I actually shot this with my phone and am pretty impressed by the quality it gets.  I have a Google Pixel 3XL and it is great for when I am not able to have my actual camera with me.  I took a couple of items out of the photo which were newer looking and then converted it to B&W and I thought it made for a rather timeless image.

This is a bit different image for me.  This is an antique mailbox that some friends of mine have.  I love the character of it with the rust patina and just the old style look to it.  This type of mailbox would be fun to have instead of the boring boxy ones they are around now.

This is an older image from the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn Michigan.  I have so much to share from there if I want because that place was just filled with very neat displays of all kinds of steam engines and transportation and just Americana type items.  I love old gas pumps and thought this display was very neat with the sleek gas truck in it as well.

This is a kind of fitting post today because as this posts we should be on a bike ride, though not motorized, on an old railroad route in South Dakota.  On Sunday we visited Sturgis where they hold the huge motorcycle rally every year, this year is the 75th Anniversary.  They have a great motorcycle museum there and this is one of them featured.  This is an Indian Military bike which I had never seen before, these are usually Harleys.  This one was a 1943 Military Scout 741 bike that was restored in the 1990s.  If I could have any antique motorcycle, I would have an Indian.  They are very beautiful bikes.
