Site of the day: Melange. Please, go say hello!

There are silver things in this photo, over the little windows. In a nearby super tiny town – this old state bank still stands.

Mitchellville State Bank 1886

Welcome to: Tricia, Claire, Colleen, Vicki, Letha, Margaret. I think that’s it. Not as many this week… I hope I didn’t leave anyone out. A few requested to be added but failed to leave a URL… I’ll add you folks when I hear back from you.

Side note, I’ve been blogroll cleaning (slowly). I have 16 more letters to go thru. Eek. I hope to finish the cleaning soon. If you run across any inactive sites, please let me know. Thanks.

    Hi! Sorry for visiting quite late.

    Nice entry. It’s amazing how a small and old bank like this still operates. I noticed a sign that says Gun Shop. Hmmm… that’s extraordinary.

    Great photograph! I love those old buildings. Sorry for not being around. My father-in-law slipped on the ice a while back and broke his hip. He’s 89, so it’s been rough – a lot of time at the hospital.

    Thank you for sharing this lovely picture!

  5. That’s a great looking bank!

    The Wild West, eh? Mine’s up too.

  7. This one is really unique. It reminds me of shops that I see on cowboy movies. It is amazing that it still stands todate. Is it operational still?
    I really am sorry I wasn’t able to join the Photo hunters. I was at a loss when I was going to post and all of a sudden I couldn’t open my own blogger as I was switched to the new blogger buzz and not the blogger beta. They said blogger beta is already dead and this is the new one. So anyway, no Photo Hunter today but have something special for everyone. It is better than silver or gold. Please do visit if you have the time.

    I see a lot of buildings like this in Florida (where I’m planning to move)…neat, old weathery buildings. I used to work in a bank, but nothing as small as this.

    Great shot!

    Mine’s up.

    Cheers.

    Wonderful picture of that old bank building. That’s Mitchellville, isn’t it? Close to the Kentucky line? Love those little old towns!

  15. That’s a neat old building!
    I’m still in wedding bliss, so I showed off my new husbands ring that’s silver and gold.

    Cute picture, but it can’t be that tiny if they used to have a bank! I assume that the bank building stands, but the bank is no more? What with the gun shop store sign.

  17. Leesa says:
