Miscellaneous Shots 2011 - No. 4

could not believe the prices if you wanted to buy one - although the brass rods are expensive

they also had a few heads lying about

any guesses?

talk about your garden balls

another head - i have one large boulder i could attempt this on - need a good subject - my only concern is a dog mistaking it for a fire hydrant

they had many seating area's and rock water features - wish i had gotten a close up of this one - the rock used was blue schist that was polished - just beautiful - now i am on the look out for some - have one good size piece in my wall here and will use it only if i can not find another - that is the better half with her back to me:)

and i will stop here with one last one of owl's head light house we stayed right around the corner from here.

Wow - looks nice, Bill! How long did you stay?

Very unique stuff there!!! COOL! That is some CRAZY $ for those rock flowers!!!!

love the photos Bill

Lovely pictures Bill. You picked a gorgeous area to stay in. Those rock prices are meant for tourist....no Mainer in their right mind would spend money on a rock!! ^_^

or would a tourist from mass:) I have enought beach stones to make 30 of those stone flowers:) ordered some brass rods last night.

we were there for a week victor - there were some nice hiking trails in camden a couple pretty steep so i was able to get some exercise in almost every morning.

Awesome vaca, wha. Anxious to see your rock flowers when they are finished.

Worth watching.

Had a few visitors this morning. :)

The whole family came for breakfast!

Couple of shots of sunset the other night.

Cool! - lucky he didn't hit a pigeon!

Oh, yeah, sign me up for that!

How cool was that?!!!!!

I wanna see how he lands!

He pulled a parachute, it's on the 3rd clip.

How ordinary!!!

That was neat though!

guess the turkeys didn't realize they were in front of the targets

:)
