Radio Flyer Wagon

I picked up an old Radio Flyer wagon the other day at Urban Barn for $20.   I have been looking for one to add  to my yard for a planter.  This one was really rusty on the inside, which was fine for me since I was just going to add dirt on top of the rust.  I drilled holes in the bed of the wagon for drainage.  I love how it looks with all the summer flowers I planted in it.

It goes so nicely with my old bicycle and chair planter that you can kind of see in the background in this picture.  I don’t know what this plant is called, but I love the white flowers it has.

And speaking of loving things…I was so excited to get a new lens for my camera!   It is a 50 mm lens that is suppose to be great for portrait and low lighting settings.

I used it to take the pictures of the wagon.  But I have to return it.  I made the mistake of buying a lens that wont automatically focus for my type of camera.  I had to manually focus to take these pictures.  That was not easy since I never have my glasses on!  Evidently it said that in the fine print, but I didn’t see it…cause I didn’t have my glasses on LOL.  So now I have to spend a lot more money to get the one that will auto focus for my camera, live and learn.  {or put my glasses on!}
