Cute graphic!

Thank you, kind sir.

You can have a piece of me. Anything but my tail. Because you'd probably tie it to your truck's antenna..... and let it flap in the breeze of the dusty old Texas back roads. : (

How did you know?

Memories

Memories in black and white, of sunny days gone by,
Recalling smiles and music, the taste of summer fun,
The blue of sky, the yellow sun, the bright green of the grass,
In black and white photos in my mind, now that the days are done.

Those silent pictures singing out their music and their joy,
Of hayrides, songfests, parties and families gathered up,
To pat the heads and see the smiles of the newest young’uns,
And all of that crammed into a photograph with edges all curled up.

Your fancy computers may hold a lot of data, and then connect you,
With a world much wider than I’ve known and wandered,
But if it can’t expand a faded image into distant laughter,
Then you may find it isn’t time but life you’ve squandered.

Good morning. Happy Thursday, GeeBee.
Beautiful roses! Thank you.

Marissa goes back to school next Wednesday.
Is Booboo ready for school to start?
I think Marissa is; she misses her friends.
I'm ready for it to start. I'm tired.

Have a Terrific Thursday.

Bubbles are cool, I remember we’d go up on the dorm roof at college and launch these 3-4 foot diameter bubbles from a loop of wire mounted on broom sticks. They would make these long snakes of bubbles that broke into huge globular bubbles that would float off from our eight story dorm roof. People would stop their cars to watch. One weekend day we had more then thirty people launching bubbles (and sipping bubbles from their beer cans.) The sky was literally a sparkle with the gleam of the sun off the thousands of bubbles floating around us. You are never too old for bubbles!

That sounds like fun - what a sight it must have been!

Good morning, Sunny48. Nice to meet you.

Now that is spooky. :^)
The vegetarians will have guilt feelings. :)
No more potatoes ... no more squash.
Thank you for sharing that with us.

Welcome to Amy's Place.
Hope to see you again soon.
Enjoy your Thursday.

With the threat of Weinie’s stompin’ hissy fit, I decided that link HAD to be posted. LOL
