In another attempt to share my world, I took this photograph as I walked by one of our neighbors homes. I really am fond of lanterns. My grandfather on my dads side had a lighting business in Raleigh for years. Passed to me by family, I have two unique iron lanterns from his business that I cherish. They are outdoor lanterns that I have used inside for years. They did not make the trip across the Atlantic but are waiting for me when I get home. I was reminded of them when I saw these hanging. The different colors of glass and the iron have so much character. I wonder if there are stories behind this lamp like the one I have of my grandfather.

I don't know why, but I am back to seeing nothing but the square with the red x. Maybe the photo will come back later.
