Population 446 in 2021

Monday afternoon I was driving where I’d not been before.

I decided to exit the Appalachian Highway and drive through the village of Coolville, Ohio, a few miles from the West Virginia border.

I thought the name Coolville was cool.

Ecru Couch Going and Coming

Another one for the collection. Garbage collection.

Laura was driving. I sat in the back seat on the left side on the way to the pool.

On the way home I sat in the passenger front seat. It was quick as she drove by.

I’d rolled the windows down.

I’d spotted the discarded couch earlier that afternoon but there was no place safe to take the shot. I knew we were going to drive that direction later d was hoping the garbage truck didn’t get there first.

Thanks Laura.

Going to the pool via Broadway
Oh my, there it was. On the way home.
I was so excited to capture it in the frame as we drove by. It would not have been convenient to ask her to drive around the block.
Too soon

Warning Sign

One exciting distraction in June 2020 was a 250 pound bear in my driveway. The neighbor had alerted me, warning me not to go out into my yard. Maybe you saw the post

On Wednesday, when I was filling my gas tank in Connecticut, this sign caught me eye. There were more warning signs on the fence around the dumpster out back.

Fortunately there were no bears to be seen as I got gas.

Here, There and Everywhere

You know I’ll drive around the block to photograph an abandoned couch or chair.

A toilet or two. More images for the collection.

These two pieces of furniture were found in a single day as I was driving through Connecticut on Wednesday September 29th. .

You can find them almost anywhere.
Blog follower Stef says, you’d be fined if you put out a couch on the curb in Minnesota.
Can you find the couch?
And here’s one from the archives photographed in Berlin Germany 2019
