The First Week of July




A variety of pictures still to this very day I find that it's difficult in placing pictures within one's own writings especially if it's more than one.

But these are a few that have been taken some of which were today and others from earlier days.

  2. lol guess this area had to find a use for all the rocks, eh? Some areas around here are like that. You see them used for walk ways, walls, privacy walls, and foundations.

  3. Very nice walk as the span of areas that one covers is good with exercise as well as within grasping in the summer as finally we have today as a good one where it's been very nice.

  21. These are within the first mall I built and it went into other hand and then the pension fund hired a management company and they hired some painter to do murals on the walls. I think they are changed each quarter of the year.
