I loved how the gate was just hanging on the hinges - looked like 

it had been there a long, long time. Meyer Avenue is one of most charming

streets in El Presidio Historic District, Tucson, AZ.

There's a mystery here. Where are the arches leading me? 

I don't know, as I didn't follow the path, just 

thought of how I would paint them.

The Eclectic Flea is a re-sale shop in Lost Barrio, here in Tucson, AZ. 

I have always been fascinated by doors and gates
