My sister and I were driving downtown to get her return train ticket to New York. Buying in person at the ticket window she saved almost 40$ instead of buying online. What is that about? Mary encouraged me to get out of the car to get a better shot so I parked. We stopped on the way home.
I was a passenger, on our way to downtown Columbus, Ohio. James was driving.
Another double discard!
Must be couch season.
I love that she saw it and thought of me and took a picture and sent it.
Not a couch.
Take a look at what granddaughter Maura texted me today. Unexpected.
Not the run of the mill couch or any old chair!
Tuesday morning on the way to breakfast with my friend Vincie, spotted this couch on the curb. I pulled over in the next block, got out and took the photo.
She asked me what’s with the attraction of photographing the abandoned furniture? These discards?
It’s hard to explain in words but I can tell you they make me feel something.
I think if the furniture could speak, there would be many stories.
I realize they are inanimate objects, unwanted and worn out.
They can’t speak so I have to use my imagination of what they have seen and endured.
Pittsburgh and Columbus have the most couches at the curbs. Chairs, too.
I received a text from my granddaughter Maura with a few different angles of this collection of household discards. I chose this one to post.
Thanks Maura. Nice sighting!
Laura sent me this photo she took in Columbus, Ohio. It’s a good one.
I appreciate my family and friends seeing curbside discards, thinking of me and sharing a photo. I love the light on this one.
“Always take pics of furniture but ever furniture boxes?” Granddaughter Maura wrote in a text with this photo
I responded “why not?”
Guest blogger today is Maura. Oh she managed to send an abandoned chair too
