The Promised Land - a photo on Flickriver

The Promised Land

            Don't know where some of my titles come from, but anyway . . .  This is a wonderful old gate that Ken & I found at an estate sale- each panel is about 4 ft wide, and at the highest center points, it is about 8 ft tall!  It came from the south of France! Or so the story goes . . .  but I believe it! Forged iron rather than wrought iron and VERY heavy!  I seem to collect gates, along with a lot of other smaller stuff, if you don't count the pianos . . .  ! It was delivered today!  I am working on ideas for the installation of this grand old gate and "the look" of that area. May have to have a fence "re-do," I think. Poor Ken! At least he can watch and not have to attempt stuff with the broken shoulder. 

Taken for the Jules' Photo Challenge Group:
The August 2015 Photo Challenge is a month long, black & white challenge that will consist of 1 photo per day. Each photo must pertain to something that happened in your life on that day- an event you attended, a person who had an impact on you, an object that played some role in your day.
