Hot Summer Day at Ayres Landing



Ayre's Landing is at the very end of the road.  The road dead-ends at the Snake River where there is a railroad repair facility.  The facility includes the shops and a few occupied houses.  Then there are abandoned buildings like the one pictured.  This is an HDR image where bracketed images are combined to recover the details in the shadows and highlights.

On another note, I was picking edible pod peas in our garden today.  I kept hearing crunch, crunch, crunch.  I looked down and there was Riley, our West Highland White Terrier, picking the peas off the lower branches.  He only discovered the peas last week when our two-year old granddaughter gave him a couple.  Oh well, next year I will have to "fence" that little raised bed.  Riley really liked the peas and was feasting.  Our granddaughter likes the peas within the pods.  Thus, she will extract the peas and then give Riley the pod.

At least there is no waste.
