Mom's submission - Windsor

Windsor. MO.

I hounded my mom for months to take pictures of water towers for me while she is out and about in Missouri. She travels around picking up scrap material or working with others to set up a scrap reuse center. Very cool stuff. Check out her Reusables web site.

Now that she is taking pictures I haven't had the time to post them until now. Behold Windsor Missouri and a beautiful rainbow.

My buddy or should I say Bubba (his nickname) took this picture of the Ocean Isle Beach water tower for me back in March and I am just now finding time to post it.

Who knew my blog would take off so well that I would be inundated with submissions. :) I apologize for my delay in posting pictures lately but please keep sending them.
