Margie from Auckland, New Zealand

Looks like a nice outlook for the owners of the homestead.
This is such a foreign sight to me. 'Scuse my ignorance but what is that overgrown chimney stack thing?
And in answer to your question of a few days ago, yes it's autumn here now...very soon we'll be in the deepest darkest depths of winter. Well...it is to us anyway...it's probably quite temperate to someone who lives in Canada!

@Margie: thanks so much Margie, it's a grain Silo, autumn is a beautiful season, my favourite in fact, so I'll be checking you out, although I have to admit we're earned are warm weather here, but it still isn't warm enough yet for me to go seek chills LOL

Ian Bramham from Manchester, United Kingdom

Hi Lorraine - It's a grain silo I presume?...great photo!

It seems like you've had such a rapid transition from winter to full blown spring!

7 May 2008 9:39pm

@Ian Bramham: Yes it is, thanks so much...
I'll let you in on a little secret, this transition is soooo slow that I posted some photos from a year or two ago when the weather was less inclement...

amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada

I'm too busy salivating over the blossoms on the tree and that green grass... what silo?? LOL!! Very nicely done, Lorraine! Those homestead owners have one heck of a view!
