Up In The Air

 A tractor on a tall pole. In the south, it seems like you see quite a few things on poles, including motorcycles and bikes.



Time is not so relentless when it is possible to watch the sun make an uninhibited arc across the day, when the stars take up more of the night's space than the darkness, when a footprint lives for days in its moist soil bed, when the only motor to be heard is the occasional tractor several miles away.

Hoist anything iconic onto a pole and it's a piece of art. :) I'll accept that. *lol* ~Andrea xoxoxo

How unique and interesting Ginny! You are really observant, I must be like you then I can capture more interesting things here to show you but alas, we are still forbidden to go out and walk around...

That certainly makes it convenient to spot the place when you are going down the road.

I'm lost! My GPS is down. But, I am at the corner of the tractor and stop light!! Come get me.

This is a fun post today Ginny.

I have seen motorcycles, bikes and cars but not a tractor. I just read Hootin Annies comment. love that. Bob and I do that too. use landmarks to say where were were or are at the time.. you can always say lets meet at the tractor. bring your camera...

Heading up north in Michigan there is a John Deere dealer on the expressway. They used to have a tractor on a pole. It's hasn't been there for the last few times I drove by though. I wonder if it fell down!

So Virginia is for lovers and strange things on poles.
