The Letter "W" -- Weekend Roundup and Reflections

The forty-ninth issue this week of my WEEKEND ROUNDUP postings and ... 
(THE TWENTY-THIRD LETTER FOR THIS SERIES)
 - the Letter "W" Prompts are: (A) Starts with the Letter "W"; (B) "Window" (Tom's Choice); (C) A Favorite; (D) Reflections; and (E) A Lagniappe. 
  _ _ _ _   

 
 (A) Starts with the Letter "W":   Wear starts with "W".  We should all wear our masks.  This young lady has become our city, Houston, Texas,  mascot.  I photographed her, full page size in our newspaper, The Houston Chronicle.   The large lettering says, 
"Let's keep it up
Lets all #Maskup"


 (B) "Window" (Tom's Choice):   The table is set for Turkey Day dinner.  Out the Window we can see dusk has come.  Note the Reflections of lights inside showing in the Window

 

 
(C) A Favorite "W" is also for Wagon.  This Favorite picture of me beside "Mr. Tin Man" sitting in the old Radio Flyer Wagon (I think that is what it is) has been my Blogger profile picture for quite a while.  

I still have me with the old Ford pickup in the Canadian Yukon Territory for my Facebook picture though. I have a whole post about Red Wagons, part of it from Montevideo, Uruguay, on January 1, 2017, and another part, a song, My Red WagonSee and hear it here.

Ships waiting to come into port to load oil 


Our view point, a Forward Lounge having tea 


The Reflection is mainly below the white part 
of this ship.  I think it is a tanker up close??

(D) Reflections:  In the Waters outside Mumbai, India


(E) A Lagniappe.    "Al Seef" is a total "Have it all" place in Dubai on the Dubai Creek to visit and or/stay for a few nights.  Copied from their Web site

    Bonus Questions:

    (1)  How did you spend "Thanksgiving Day?"   Mrs. Jim and I visited our daughter, granddaughter, and SIL in the early afternoon.  Fairly soon we were at the table by the window, pictured above.  Our fare was roasted turkey, turkey dressing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, cranberries, green beans wrapped in bacon, and proper drinks.  Desert was pumpkin pie and apple struddle.  I had some of each..

    (2) What is your favorite "WWord?  Mine today will be "Wiggle."  All my life  have tried to Wiggle my nose and ears without Wiggling other facial parts.  

    (3) Anything else here you would like to tell about?
