Pick Up Your Hat
and leave behind
that lonely
cup of tea
step out in style
and explore
what's there
beyond the daily grind!
Now close that book
and see
"what we'll do.
near, far, in our motor car" *
Snap, snap!
:-)

Thank you for keeping my little boat afloat with your comments. I'm so grateful.The tea towel picture as my banner is so simple unlike some other blogs where their banners are professionally designed.

Paris Breakfasts,
that book jacket illustration is a perfect optical illusion, I love it!
Merisi, I have been having server connections irregularities. What pleasure has come from this evening's massive catch up on your recent posts.
ReplyDeleteLots of variety in the images.
You made me laugh with the notion of Follies with any day of the week attached. Tuesday Follies?

I like these more whimsical pictures :) It's a bit of a tradition of mine to take pictures of people taking pictures so I like that last one a lot :)
ReplyDeleteNow that song will be in my head all week "pretty chitty bang bang."
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures as always! Thanks for stopping by the other day; it was nice to "see" you.
Thanks for the little tour :-) A great way to spend a Sunday!
