Letter "W" -- -- Weekend Roundup and Reflections/People on the Street

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!! 

- - -

Weekend Roundup, THE TWENTY-THIRD LETTER FOR THIS SERIES - The Letter "W" Prompts are: (A) Starts with the Letter "W"; (B) "Weather" (Tom's Choice); (C) A Favorite; and (D) A Lagniappe.  

 - - - - 


(A) Starts with the Letter "W":  Wreath starts with the letter "W", we have used this Christmas Wreath on our front door for many years.  It was a Christmas gift from one of Mrs. Jim's bridge playing friends.   One bell was cracked but a little glue fixed it well. 


(B.1) "Weather" (Tom's Choice): "Cloudy with scattered contrails."  

There were many contrails emerging from the clouds and visible when into the open space.  That was on our way on the Westpark Toll Road to our Cardiologist's office yesterday.  But I didn't have a chance to stop there (Mrs. Jim doesn't like for me to take pictures while driving) and the contrails we could see had mostly diffused by the time we could stop.  
 
I had hoped to see an "above ground rail car" going by on the tracks to the left but wasn't lucky this day.

(B.2) Today's [12-3-2021] Weather.for our Houston,  (Photos courtesy of or local  F O X   TV Channel 26)

(B.3)  Reflections/Street People:  This is an isolation choice from the picture above.  

The clouds' Reflections are vividly shown in the mirrored windows of the building ahead of us that we saw at the traffic light.


(C) A Favorite:  Oscar Meyer Wienermobile. 
I had hoped to find my previous post written about my venture "driving the Wienermobile."   Well, I was only driving in my mind but I got the feel of the cockpit and the wheel when it was my turn to go in and sit at the controls.  I had pictures of that but . . . 
 
 

 


(D.1) A Lagniappe:  Also Starts with the Letter "W":  Witch starts with "W".  This is a Witch's Car; the owner proclaims this in a couple of stickers on her rear window. 

She has other stickers in various places on the car.  You can read them by clicking on the picture at right.  Click the picture again for larger still.

(D.2) Another Lagniappe:   Wales is the only country I've visited that begins with "W".
