Tina's WW - Ducking work

The ducks know how to relax - in or out of the water. No worry or pressures, the day of fun is with the ducks...See Tina's WW!

Whimsical Windows - Contrasting eras

Toby most graciously hosts the fun and educational meme Whimsical Windows - Delirious Doors. We look for architectural gems in windows, doors or even styles. It would seem that there is no city quite like Boston where the old and classic is surrounded by new. 


Looking out the window upstairs at the Quincy Market, we look across toward Faneuil Hall, last renovated in 1899 and flanked by a tall modern building from maybe the 1990s. Not at unattractive, but devoid of New England style details such as dormers and half-moon shaped windows. A great city with great architecture!

Ruby Tuesday 2-Tilted Tree

Ruby Tuesday continues! Thanks for making this second edition happen MMT! 

We are fixated in the USA about Christmas being only on 25 December. 


Yet in most other parts of the globe, the day can be as late as 6 January. So I am presenting a Christmas tree from a few years ago.


Balancing even a small point-and-shoot camera while in a wheelchair sometimes distorts the view slightly-the tilted (not real) conifer is the result here...


No matter the angle. with a few rubies, the pic still qualifies!

Tina's Pic Story - Atmospheric 'A'

Happy New Year to all! Tina's Pic Story is back in 2012 and all is the same - we provide the pictures, she thoughtfully provides the weekly theme, which this week is the letter 'A'
I may be taking a few liberties here, yet there are several A's around, that are obvious I would hope. If not, how about...

This is the wing of an MD-80 Airplane,
the airplane wing made of Aluminum,
the plane going through the Atmosphere,
and...
the picture was taken by daughter Allegra somewhere over North Carolina

So the letter 'A' is well represented - I would say :)
