Today’s Weather Vane Wednesday post is once again a golf theme. The weather vane is quite large in comparison to the first golf vane post. You can find this nattily-dressed golfer atop the Pitman Golf Club in Pitman, New Jersey.
A little closer…
The photo is a bit blurry since I zoomed in from afar, but you can see by the weathered surface the weather vane has been there quite awhile. I like his jaunty cap.
Thanks so much to the 59 Club for two weeks of #weathervaneweds posts.
The 59 Club/Faith During Calm and Turbulent Times
…and…
The 59 Club/Dock Duty
The Photo Challenge: Each Wednesday, I post a photograph of a Weather Vane with a short description of where it can be found and any history connected to it. The main focus of the challenge is the photo of the Weather Vane and the location. The challenge can be Wordless if that is what you choose. If you would like others to see your post leave a link to your blog in the comment box. You can also tag the post #weathervaneweds. If you place a link to my post in your post you will create a pingback that will appear in the comment section. The challenge is open all week for comments and posts. Thanks so much for taking part in my challenge.
Many thanks to Cee, of Cee’s Photography, for including this challenge in her listing of WordPress Challenges. If you love challenges take a look at this page and while you are there check out some of Cee’s terrific posts. Thanks Cee!

This is a another great one. There used to be quite a bit of artistry that went into weathervanes in the past.

This one in size is much larger than all the others except for the one on the justice building.

It’s a really good one. I’ll have to stop in and ask when it was made…if they even know…the next time I’m there for a brunch or other event.

Ah, you’ve captured a lost art. Awesome! You don’t see weathervanes much around anymore.

We were in Jamaica, and I was sure I would see at least one to photograph, but I didn’t see any. I’m also wondering if it is a regional thing. I see quite a few here on the east coast…not so sure if they are all over the country.

Would be interesting to find out if it is a regional thing. I don’t travel much at this time of my life, so I wouldn’t have the opportunity to go and do something like this … hunt for weathervanes. 🙂

A few of mine have been found when I wasn’t looking…in fact, one of my favorites was just a lucky drive-by find…The flying pig…so much fun to see that one and turn the car around.

Here in Tennessee there aren’t a lot of weathervanes. I love the patina on that one. So glad to have a new blogging friend. 💜

I am noticing more all the time. I like the fact that it keeps me looking up at the sky instead of down at the ground.
