Maybe I have watched too many "Westerns," but having a door and windows on that house, outside of the protective walls, seems a little dangerous to me!! lol. Jimbob, I have liked this visit of the fort very much. ~~ John

A fine shot, Jimbob. Can't get much more rustic than this. Colors are really nice here too.

Jimbob, it has a rustic atmosphere, intensified by the agricultural tool, indeed. Think it will gone when the enemy appears, lol.

Good entry for the contest. Good Luck.

Regards, Cornelius.

I think the word rustic has this picture beside it in the dictionary, Jim - if it doesn't it should. Good luck in the contest -

Well, Jimbob, when you commented on my definition of rustic, which included 1. A rural person. and 2. A person regarded as crude, coarse, or simple, I had hoped for a self portrait. You could have removed your false teeth, gummed your favorite corn cob pipe and put on that straw hat and bib overalls that you're always wearing.

This shot's a beauty. Good luck in the contest. I would have preferred the self portrait, but this posting won't scare the voters.

I think a photo of Skitzo (Roger,Dorothy,Dotger) would have been a good entry too JimboB.
To me this is about as rustic as it gets. The cultivator adds the final touch. I suspect this will be in the winner's circle.

This image is:

The best of luck [considering your competition LOL],
