QS, did it get vandalized or was that done by choice?

The ladies at my sisters foundation first used that splatter technique on a book case. Visitors saw it. liked it and are bringing their bookcases for the paint job now. The van has received the same treatment obviously. It stops traffic and makes people smile. It is a painting technique and style associated with the artist Jackson Pollock. If you don't like it I completely understand. If you do, well I understand that too.

The only issue I have with that paint job is the paint on the driver's window obscures the driver's vision to the left.

This is dangerous, both for the driver and other vehicles. High potential for a ticket from a LEO.

John, You are correct. The paint is on the back of the side view mirror. It would be a hard-hearted cop who would cite that vehicle filled with laughing formerly felonious females. Besides, my sister knows the Sheriff, the judges, the prosecutors, etc. who all love her. She is having a profound impact on many lives.

Our neighbor Paul cuts our field and we then let him bale it into hay for his cattle. Although a Marine, he is a very good man.

A local attraction. The barrels made here will contain the world's finest bourbons. Tours are offered, tho not currently, but I suppose will one day resume.

I have been enjoying all the posts here, really good stuff.

Here is a pic I took yesterday while out and about, a common old Milkweed plant, impressive nonetheless.
