(A) Starts with the Letter "T":   Tea is my letter "T" starting word.  This is Mrs. Jim's Teacart which she inherited from her long time ago early in the workforce boss.  Mrs. Jim is a Social Worker, now retired since 1999. 

 
We were home, our old home (1999-2015)!


(B) "Top" (Tom's Choice):  My 1998 Ford Mustang GT, Top Down.  [Click on most any picture to make it large size.  Click again for super large]

(C.1) A Favorite:  Here are some of my favorited cast iron 1:18 scale Toys, all Fords, all Tops Down  

I've had as drivers, cars near these, the 1956 Ford Sunliner Convertible new, mine was green and white.  Back row, left to right, 1956, 1937, 2003, and front a 1964 Ford Mustang. 


(C.2) A FavoriteToy Taxi Cab that I had when I was a small boy.  (story of its gift to me HERE

Later I had left it outside after play and my father crushed it to pieces, not repairable, with his tractor while mowing.



(D.1)
A Lagniappe:   Two at the Veterans Day Recognition at our youngest granddaughter's junior high school. 

 I am also posted on the school's Wall of Honor, lower left on the wall placard on your right.  


(D.2) Another Lagniappe:   My Two Feet on our 1980's digital Taylor scale. Those who know me may be able to notice that I've lost some weight, ten to fifteen pounds. That also makes me look older in the face. 

They have won several beauty foot and feet contests, mine for the Ugliest Feet entered.  [They might scare you if you clicked once or twice on them!!]

(D.3) still Another Lagniappe:  the only "T" Country I have  visited is Turkey.  To Ephesus and Istanbul

yay! we got to see Mrs Jim's Silver tea set! it's magnificent.
 
WOW! All that silver to clear! I wonder does it get much use Jim? I love your 1998 Ford Mustang GT. Have a lovely weekend and week ahead,
 
In our earlier time we used parts of it fairly regular, mostly when entertaining.
..
 
...Jim, you TOTALLY knocked THIS one out of the park! I only wish THAT my feet looked as good as yours! TAKE care and enjoy your weekend with THE TOP down.
 
That is an impressive tea cart and I sure wouldn't mind a ride with the top down, but not today. Below freezing here. :)
 
I thought your first one was going to be TABLE TOP! Your feet don't look that bad.
And yes, I think as we age we look older when we lose weight.
 
time goes by so fast, your granddaughter has grow up'
have a good weekend,
 
Wonderful photos and blog Jim
