Donna at The Brenda Photo Challenge Blog hosts The Brenda Photo Challenge. Mahalo Donna for hosting this. Direct from her blog comes the following:

THEME: WEATHERED & WORN
DATE: SATURDAY, JUNE 5TH

Wasn’t the Last Challenge Wonderful? I Loved seeing all the wonderful photos of Flowers! Some I had never seen before! Gorgeous! Well we’re off in a New direction this time! This Challenge is brought to us by Donna of Cottage Days…I’d like to say, if YOU have any suggestions for future Challenges, please email me at: dlstaas@yahoo.com . I’m always looking for new directions and challenges! SO, without further adoooo…..If you’re ready, here we Go! Just as it suggest, this can be Anything that’s Weathered….old…worn…tired! Take a look around the house and you may see an old treasure OR, get outside and let your imagination roam. This should be another Interesting one! I can’t Wait to see what You come up with! Just remember though…This is about having FUN! No Pressure! Anyone can enter!

Well I went around the yard looking for things that where weathered and worn and came up with these. The first one is our coke machine. Yes it still works but we don’t use it. Too humbug to get the beer out of there. LOL I should say that it is our beer machine. So the second photo I saw was to show you were we keep the beer so we don’t have to keep going in and out of the refrigerator. This cooler has been used for years and even though it’s quite beat up, it still does the job. The last photo of course is my hanai mom. I couldn’t resist this. Talk about weathered and worn…YAHOO!!!! I hope you enjoy;

  1. ROFLMAO!!! Poor Mom!!

    ….although the minute I read the theme for this week, I thought jeez, I should have sent you a photo of me, and my house! We’d have taken a prize.
    :-(

  2. I love that first one — great texture and color!
    And is the last one your mom? :)

  3. Great choices Thom! Love the Coke machine and tell me does Hanai mom use a computer and read your blog? Just wondering…:0)

    • Ummm no but I showed her the picture. You see she says she never falls asleep with the light on and TV on. I prove her wrong LOL :)

  4. My first thought was the same as Susan’s you could have sent mine in — I fit the bill and so does our house!! Just let me know when you need pics of old worn out stuff, I can keep you well supplied!! Have a great weekend! Enjoy!

  6. Poor Myrna! Does she know you took a photo of her napping and posted it on the web? I love that pop [beer] machine. The cooler has definitely seen better days.

  7. Great shots but I have to ask does she know you took a photo of her? Love the first pic, we have many of those around here too.
