Shadow Shot Sunday...To Market To Market...

I'm a lucky girl, lucky girl
know what I mean...
I shop for a living
is this not obscene...
Not hardly, when mood swings
I jump in the stead
to search out the cool things
that you folks all need...

Whatever...

To work in today's hard land of toil
to find one's niche and love it
is not a thing of luck, but
a search for the spoil...
To travel a mile on that 'Honey Hole' haunt,
that spirit of adventure
we all dream... some get
and some not.


I am a lucky girl
to follow my dreams
to ride into the sunshine
or new fallen snow
in search of a product
to keep it...
or no.
I love what I do...
to shop till I drop,
to see all the beauty
where you all might not
in crispy white paints
and gnarly old woods,
it all has it's beauty...
'in the eye of the beholder'
they say...
but I crave it's history,
you would if you could.

These alabaster shadows
of times faded past,
will bring new light
and mem'ries
from the experience
they cast.
Of glorious history,
where they once too had graced,
perhaps on the desk
that a writer had placed,
lighting paths to the novels
and dreams that she faced...
and of dreams...and of dreams.

We all have a dream
and mine is fulfilled,
to hunt junk piles and ditches
and flea markets,
yard sales
and Craig's list and EBay
an expedition for sure,
on safari to a lifestyle
that has encompassed my ALL...
I am a lucky girl
get a load of this haul!


HEY...it's Sunday in Australia...again...and we're all here, so check us out, shadow shooters from all over the world. A fun loving group that will stop at nothing to grab that perfect Shadow Shot.
So if you see me driving down the highway, arm outstretched through the window and camera at the ready...get outta my way!!!
I'm on a mission...to play...
