a 'rust garden' update

Spent a little time today during the nice afternoon (between rain storms, but we needed it) rearranging and adding a few items to the 'rust garden' out front. Some of this junk (but *cool* junk?!) has been there awhile, but this summer I've been adding more things here than around the corner, where the whole idea of filling up what should otherwise be flower gardens with rusty stuff and pretty rocks and interesting bricks hatched itself at first... ;-) ;-) ;-) pics here are basically left to right across the front of the house.

Recent additions in pic1 are the ABF truck weights, ceramic insulator, and streetlight globe lamp, all previously shown. The SINGER carcass and spring/shock absorber have been there awhile along with a pair of brake rotors, one of which is at the lower LH and difficult to see under the weeds.

New things in pic2 are the iron wine rack, large scale weight, and large ceramic insulator. I loaded the rack with five Coca-Cola bottles I already had, (and have shown) the brick has been there.

The only additions to pic3 are the pair of iron bars with little legs on each end, I think they were part of a fireplace grate. They simply got moved from another spot out back. The old steel helmet has been shown already too, it just found a good place to stay on top of a clay tile that used to allow water to leak out through the bottom of a retaining wall.

Pic 4 has all been there for awhile but for the insulators. The milk can has already been shown, to its left is a gas heater burner and to its right a rusted-through 'white with red rim' enamelware bowl. In front of the can is a 'competition' horseshoe.
