Two Palms

I am convinced that at some time in the past

these palms marked some kind of entrance;

like on either side of a driveway, or sidewalk

leading up to the front entrance of a building.

Now they stand guard over a large vacant lot.

Handsome House

Many captivating details about this home

caught my eye - the sentry palms, the hitching post,

the iron rail fence, lamp post, bay window, flower boxes,

weather vane... 

but the darker shaded blue lines of shingles,

that is what made me stop and take a picture.

I drive by this house every day.

It always makes me smile.
