Weekend Roundup -- 05-18 (for letter "E")
Weekend Roundup, this week's prompts;
Starts with "E"; A Favorite; and Evening
(1) Starts with "E": Elephant starts with "E". This is KP's school room. Originally it was a "secret room" with access made by pushing towards the wall on a bookcase. KP has pretty well taken over there. Other than school, remaining are a few communications distribution equipment on one wall. KP is our eight-year-old granddaughter. She's in the third grade.
Teacher's desk. Pretty neat (both definitions)!
(2) A Favorite: First week in February, a new month, calls again for my NAPA Calendar. On display below is a pretty 1956 Austin-Healy sports car. They came out just before I was drafted, I remember visiting the dealer showroom in Lincoln Nebraska. At the moment I wanted one but instead I bought a New 1956 Ford Sunliner Convertible.
(3) Evening: It snowed all day but this is all that lingered on until Evening when the snowfall stopped. Some places in town had more, others had less.
4.a. Lagniappe: Elfin Sports cars. These cars are made in Australia. I first heard of them when preparing for this Weekend Roundup post. (Link 1)(Link 2)

...Jim, that's one colorful class room. I always wanted an Austin-Healy in British Racing Green. It really snows down there? Elfin is a new one for me, the yellow sure is cool looking. I'd no doubt crack it up with a right-hand drive. Thanks for stopping by, my friend.
that classroom is certainnly well equiped and coloutful but my favourits is that Austin healy. The colour is brilliant. Have a lovley weekend.
I love the price of that car in the 50s. Three grand was hard to come by for many back then.
Have a fabulous day, Jim. ☺
Have a fabulous day, Jim. ☺
I'm not usually a big fan of old cars, but I love that little Austin-Healey. That would be a great summertime ride. How unusual for you to have snow in your yard! We have lots.
A secret room would be awesome! When I was little, I turned a closet into my classroom for pretend teaching. Your snow image is lovely. Of course, any pool here would be an ice skating rink.

KP's school room is cute - and the elephant is a great 'E'! The Ford was likely more reliable than the Healy, but not nearly as stylish! These days, an Austin-Healy 100/3000 is likely to have a Chevy V8...
