Robot Love



Last Saturday I roamed the canyons near our house, in search of junk. I had a vision of a layout I wanted to do, I just needed the ingredients to mix together to come out with the proper digital stew. I'm not sure this turned out quite how I had envisioned it, but I did have fun trying to see something that wasn't really in the photos, but existed only in my mind. I found a great junkyard, complete with junkyard dog. I happily snapped a couple of dozen photos, hoping to come up with the parts I needed to create some robots. I've been working on this for the better part of a week. It's not quite as realistic as I hoped it would be, but it was fun, and I think our grandson Aidan will get a kick out of his new friends, the Robot Family. I also included some of the original photos. See if you can pick out any of the Robot parts!

That's cool! I think the old Fort down in Key West is filled with a bunch of junk that some inventive individual has turned into art. I always get a kick of of stuff like that.

Talk about going "junkin". That gives new meaning to fun in the scrapyard. So cute. I loved the trailer hitch for the dogs face.
