ABC Wednesday is upon us again. Today's letter is " S ".
This past weekend our family took a road trip into the High Desert of California. We visited a ghost town called Bodie,
Its there that I found my letter " S ".
Peering into a window I saw the sole of an old work shoe. Simply perfect. It was sitting on the window sill waiting for me to snap the shot. So...I did.
Sunshine and shoe soles, what more could I ask?
For more ABC Wednesday posts go to Mrs. Nesbits link on my sidebar.
Super-sizing this shot will show a lot of detail.

I fell for the photo of the sole - it should be able to tell a whole history.
I like that photo, it reminds me a bit of a Dutch painter who used to paint old and discarded things (Jopie Huisman).
This photo touched my sole... um.. soul!
fantastic photo very pure and well done , happy abc Phowa!..

belle photo, j'aimerais visiter une ville fantôme.
nice photograph, I would like to visit one ghost town.
Fun and original "s" post! Glad you had a nice hike and found your perfect S shot.
Original idea!
I know a blog which only presents shoes pictures (with comments abouut shoes)
I'd like to visit a ghost city ...How Strange !
I wonder what happened to the wearer???
Great shot and can't you just imagine the stories it could tell! Fun post for ABC Wednesday! Thanks!
I've been to Bodie!!! That means that you might seen Lake Mono too with all the tufas?
Loved the shoe. Very Van Goughish!
Wow! Awesome shot! And I bet you had fun on your little trip. :D
work of art. :)
Hey Sue. Been missing you.
I'm sure there are some interesting stories that old boot could tell. I wonder where its mate is?
That's a great shot! Next time I'm over at the West Coast I'm going to try to get to a ghost town - they look so fascinating!
There is something about old shoes that fascinates me. They have been in places where they were useful for the owner. What have they done?
Good choice to go with my stockings!
An abandoned shoes in a ghost town. This is interesting photo and your idea to post it is just original. This dusty shoes make me wonder who was the person who once wore it.
This shoe could tell many stories. Nice photo!
A lovely photo and interesting story
I love all your "s's"--good job, Sue. The shoe surely must have a history!!

Great shot...very original...it looks like it has stories to tell....
This is clever. I wouldn't have thought of it.
"S"o, you went to Bodie? First time? Quite an experience, huh? Hope you had a great trip.
My first visit to Bodie was when I was barely a teenager, but I instantly fell in love with the place... That was before the parks department started their "preservation" project (or whatever they call it) -- since then they've fixed the place up quite a bit, and I'm almost sure they've salted the place with a few artifacts. Delightful place, none the less... I need to make a trip back to that area soon...
I think this shoe must have seen a lot of hard work; what a story it could tell! Thanks for sharing this week.
Your image has a lot of soul I mean sole.
Fun S!
I find I also am looking for my ABC all week. My husband and I are enjoying this so very much.
I think shoes do tell stories.

Oh, you are so right! GREAT S~! I wonder the story that goes along with that single shoe!
Cool shot - a history right there in an unlaced shoe.
That one had a rough life! Great shot!
Ha! Quick thinking on your part! I like your clever post.
lovely find and capture!
Ahhahahhah, that is crazy. Just a shoe but it looks so sad.
That is a great find and it was just waiting for you to take it!
What a great shot.. full of sole!
all I can think about is..."wow,I bet his feet (0r her)
really hurt"
I have never seen this shot of Bodie either. Nice catch!
I supersized the shot and loved the details.....particularly on the shoe.......great shot!!!!!!
