I stuck with wood: Trees growing in the forest, a stack of timber for winter warmth, carved timber in a palace, majestic timbers in a bridge, a fine timber cello hidden inside its case, old timber doors, timber supports, cladding and roof shingles on an old French toll house.
Where would mankind be without wood? It is a wonderful renewable resource that has been tended and cared for by humanity for thousands of years … until today, when unrenewable resources are used more and more for construction, and forests are destroyed for development and money-making. I look forward to a world where wood regains its true value before it is too late for the whole planet.
The comments box is working fine – you know what it was? I was using my iPad, unwilling to get out of bed and come to the computer … I’ll bet that was the problem. Sorry Christine. 🙂
i know what you mean about the ipad … it is inconvenient in some ways .. never remembers my details and i always have to log in afresh for everything so i have totally given up trying to make comments on it!
A super collection, so I wonder if the covered bridges in America originated in Switzerland. The French toll house is amazing, its great how blogging shows us so much that we would never get to see otherwise.
yes we are world travellers every day gilly, sharing the views of our blogging friends!
I love the old toll house. Wonderful photos for this week’s challenge. Thanks so much for sharing them!
thanks for the opportunity cee!
