SELFIE

Lookie what I, Sweet William The Scot, did.
I did a Selfie!
Yep Lee sat the camera down and went to get my scarf and I took a selfie.
A selfie is a type of self-portrait photograph, typically taken with a hand-held digital camera or camera phone. Selfies are often associated with social networking.
Oh dogs I am social networking, I am in the groove.
We found another treasure. 
We were walking last Wednesday, the temperature was above 30 degrees.
Every other Wednesday is Recycle Day in Cincinnati.  Well I wanted to stop and leave a little pee mail on a recycle container but Lee looked and started to stop me when she noticed in amongst
glass bottles was this Airedale Vase.  Well at first Lee thought it was a vase but it might have a rim on top like it had a stopper or plug to seal a bottle opening. It does not have a chip or crack. The markings show it to be 1909. There are over 12,000 antiques marks.  Did you know that?  It is so pretty.  We are such a throw away society.
If anyone has seen one and knows what it is let us know.  Okie Dokie.
Oh I bet Mitch and Molly or Ruby would love my find.
Oh Lee says to tell you we have not dumpster dived yet but we have not ruled it out.
 
                   Thanks for being a friend                         
         Traveling down the road and back again              
Your heart is true and your a friend of mine.

  5. Ring-ring-a-loo...look at that self-portrait of YOU! Ma loves that Scottie face, Sir William. And oh...what a find in the garbage! It is surely beautiful and even if it is NOT a vase, it sure looks pretty as one. As they say, someone's trash is someone else's treasure!

  7. What a mighty nose you have Sweet William and a selfie to boot. On trash night before they pick up during the day there are losts of people in trucks that go around looking over the trash for great finds to sell in 2nd hand stores. My mom has even picked up a fine on our walkies sometime.

    1. I have those people in trucks also, but our city will fine them if they take certain things out of the recycle because my city makes money that way.
      Have a fab week Bentley.

    1. Helloooo Fergus and Guiness ~ Fergus is quite the Scottish name. And Guinness is a popular Irish dry stout so I be thinking you are Scots. Have I seen you leave comments on other Scots blogs? Well I am glad you stopped my here!
      I wondered the same thing about an urn but I think the glass is to fragile for the cremains.
      Thanks for leaving a comment
