Do you know what this is? |
It's not a truck, or a plane or ............
It's a Train! This is a favorite of mine for a number of reasons. My first ride on the Minnesota Zephyr was to treat my mother for her birthday. Just the two of us. Sadly, the many times I've been on it, or gave gift certificates, the company went out of business......
On a road trip to southeastern Minnesota and a walk down main street, I couldn't believe the display in the local photography shop...... I just had to snap this picture... how could I pass this up?
Not that my photo is so great, but do you notice what subjects are being displayed? I'm sure they're marketing for new business..... Yes, it appears the high school prom girls are center stage...but in all the other photos.... no people....just cows!
Yes, the things that some people do to their automobiles....
Shall we meet for lunch at one of my favorite little sidewalk cafes....if you just happen to be in "Old Town, San Diego?"
Of course if you linger too long looking at all the lovely artwork along the way to where I'm having lunch......
Because the farther you stroll the more you can see.....
Inside one of the many shops at "Old Town"...... and I shan't wait all day for you either..... so hurry....
Or, I may be forced to eat and be on my way too......
Starlight star bright, the first star I see....in Old Town will be you......!

Bravo! A fantastic selection - where to start? The cows are hilarious, and the "Nemo" bizarre indeed. Hmm maybe my pick of all would be the masks - strange and beautiful.
Happy New Year, Karen!

I want that Nemo car!
Karen, I have always loved shopping in Old Town. The shops have changed hands several times over the years, but it's still fun!
Your train photo is soooo excellent!

I love the diversity of your choice of photos. The best one is the shot of the display, all cows except the prom girls, now that's a good one! lol The train would have been an awesome ride, we have one old streetcar here that goes across the river and I finally went on it this summer. It was an awesome trip, short but awesome!
Wishing you a very Happy and Blessed New Year Karen!
What a fine collection. The train, the cows and the masks would be my number 1s.
Happy New Year, Karen
What a terrific post! Happy New Year.
That car is the funniest thing I've seen all week! I love it! But you have so much fun in this post; the masks, the cows... I think I have to go back and take a third look at everything!
Happy new year!
