Letter "T" -- Friday's Weekend Roundup 08 / Reflections and-or Street Captures

This Week's Prompts: Starts with "T"; A Favorite; Tom's word; "Tall"; and Reflections and/or Street Captures
 _ _ _ 


Starts with "T":   "Therapystarts with the Letter "T".  Mrs. Jim's breathing Therapist said that for older folk "Climbing our Stairs" once every two hours would be a good maintenance habit for both our legs and our lungs.  It would also remind us to breathe properly.  I.e. use our diaphragm for deep breathing.

Our Beagle dog, Adi, was a Therapy Dog.  We were a registered Pet Therapy Team.  Adi loved visiting in the local assisted home, the Alzheimer's residents there loved her visits. 

Adi died in September 2012.


A Favorite:  "Tea".  Before they invented "Diet Coke" Tea was my go to drink other than water.  


Tom's word, "Tall":  Things are Taller in Texas, even our statues. These are my Nebraska cousins when the marveled while visiting in 2006.  Some of you may have seen their photo before, I use it on my blog.  The statue is of Sam Houston, our first Texas President.  It is 67 feet Tall sitting on a ten-foot-high base.


Reflections and/or Street Captures. The Trees I was seeing while eating my lunch one day in April. That is a Louisiana Swamp Cypress in the foreground and on the right you can see the Cypress Tree Knots sticking up through the water.  

This is the view from a bench at the south side of our library, one of the Fort Bend County (Texas) Library System buildings at Katy, Texas


Lagniappe # 1: Tomatoes start with "T".  Aren't these pretty.  They are $1.47 per pound at our local Kroger grocery store.  

Can you find a problem showing in this picture?  

Answer? highlight the empty area below.

The word, Tomatoes, is misspelled.  
They left the Letter "O" out.
