Anywhere near Salem is off our list at the very end of October. So off we went to Rockport instead, hoping to do a bit of shopping for Christmas. Acting as a benefactor to local merchants is not a bad thing. Amirite – as the new slang goes?
But anyway nothing photographic appeared that I just had to shoot. In boredom I spotted this, and thought I might find an appropriate time to use it. Today.
This poor telephone pole has been abused for years. The staples, tacks and nails may be part of what hold it together now.

Looks like this poor pole has seen more than its share of ‘Yard Sale’ signs.

Why is Salem off your list? Too crowded?

The town is overcrowded during October. So we go before or after.
