Weekend Roundup -- 26 -18(b) (for letter "Z") and Reflection(s) too


The 52nd issue of Weekend Roundup for this year..:
A Word with a "Z";
A Favorite;
"ZZZ" as in sleepy; and
Reflection(s):





(Picture to the right is of a Zippy Fairy riding down from the furniture top on a Zip Line.)

(1.a) A Word with a "Z": Breeze has a "Z" in it. Here we were docked at Ushuaia down at the bottom of the world (Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego Province, Argentina) (Link), just above Antarctica. The wind was blowing hard, the breezes were so bad that we could not lift anchor until the next morning to sail away.
(note the reflection in the window)



(1.b) A Word with two "Z's": Pizza has two  "Z's".


(1.c) Another Word with a "Z": Mazada has  a "Z", this car also has a dent in the rear. 
 

(1.d)  Then in our part of Texas, the Texas Gulf Coastal Plain, there's always the mudder who go mudding in the rice fields and bogs.  This Chevy Z-71 is mud from top to bottom. 

 

(2) A Favorite: I love to find old Zombie Trees along the roadside.  Here my new to me Favorite was at our old haunt, Montgomery. Texas. 



(3) "ZZZ" as in sleepy:  While "the kid", our youngest of the six, was tucked away getting her "Z's" her fairy friend was riding the Zip Line in her dining room.

It just so happened that the mechanism got stuck and she had to spend the rest of her morning waiting for help. That was good for me. I could go by and snap a picture of the fairy in dress. 




(4) Reflection(s):  Our Katy Mills Mall, near the North exit.  I can't remember exactly what I was taking, but I was impressed with the reflections in the many windows involved.  Everything, including the floor seemed to reflect something it was seeing.
(Also note the reflection in the window of our life boat across from my first title, below the first set of South Sea pictures above.)

Well Jim you found a lot of Z in words for this post Well done. Good reflections and many of them. I hope that 2019 will be a happy and healthy one for you and your family
 
...well I must say Jim, that you sure finished the alphabet with a great collection of 'Z's. A zip line fairy is a new one for me! It's nice to see your pictures from the bottom of the earth. New New Year my friend.
 
You did well with using 'z'. I'm guessing you'll start over now? I seem to remember you doing this for a very long time.

Have a fabulous weekend, Jim ☺☺☺
 
I love the photo with the lighthouse and reflection.
Happy New Year!
 
That muddy truck looks a lot like mine after a rain. We have 1/2 mile to drive on what is basically a dirt road to get to the highway. I don't mind. Beats all the heave traffic in the city. Your Z post is a winner! Happy New Year to you and your family!
