This is near Milford, Delaware. I was in Delaware for almost six weeks, moving my daughter and grandbaby to Lewes, and hanging around for a while. They are both doing great!

The life of a retired man is generally always busy JimboB. I like the angle and the touch of sky adds much.
Nice to see you post.

Good to see you posting again, Jim. I am sure you enjoyed the time with your Daughter and new Grandbaby.
This is cool shot. Great angle and the mill looks good against the trees and that beauty of a sky. Well done and welcome back!

I'm glad to see your post Jim - I too was a little worried - absolutely a great gorgeous sky in this nice catch. My husband and I always say we don't know how we had time to work.

Retirement suits me also, I'm always busy. That's a great looking old mill and like the colours in the mill. Gorgeous sky and scedne

One of my retired friends once said to me: "I'm that busy now I'm retired. I can't understand where, in the past, I've find the time to go to my work." I think you will experience the same now, Jimbob, lol.

Nice however to see you posting again. Thanks for this wonderful capture.

Regards, Cornelius.

I like the contrasting colors, the blues and the greens, in this one Jimbobgramps. My daughter and grandson live four hours away, so I have an idea of how you may feel with the past six weeks. They have a great dad/granddad.

Haven't lost your touch. Good to see you here. I was wondering where you were! Great shot of this well kept mill. You will have to make more trips to DE, I think.

No, no, no, and once again no! If I am going to be so much busier when I retire, then I will remain at my age forever....
Coming back to the subject - this is a lovely capture of the most charming object.

This is cool work. Great perspective, the mill is so good against the trees and that beautiful sky. Well done and of course, welcome back! I am a granddaughter, too and I won't comment on that. And a grandniece, ask Milka. LOL

My father said that once he retired he had to start keeping a diary to remember all the things he had planned and was doing! ha ha This is a lovely capture of this mill and expect it was interesting looking in and around it. Nice to see you back Jim you have been missed.
