1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad Wagon (googled)
[from a TV ad that I've forgotten its product]

Starts with "W":  Wagons, from horse and human drawn to station wagon automobiles have been a part of humans' culture and convenience.  Did you ever wonder about the now forgotten inventor of the wheel?

A Favorite:   This year's NYC annual Rockefeller Plaza Christmas Tree is a favorite mine and many others.  An average of 800 thousand persons will be viewing it each day until after Christmas.  You've just now virtually joined the crowd.

Tom's suggestion, "White":   Pure Snow is White.  It lays on the ground and other flat surfaces.  Humans and animal are the worst offenders to change its pearly color, generally to shares of yellow and gray.

The white in this crafted ice skating rink mostly comes from a well bleached bed sheet.  It is a part of one of the two toy train scenes crafted, assembled, and now being displayed in the foyer of our church.  

Both children and adults stop for their imaginations' workouts

I will be posting more of it again on my annually updated Christmas tree farm blog, (https://jimmiehov7.blogspot.com/  ).  



James' request, Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid Captures:  Sightseers on a Lisbon, Portugal Tram, a.k.a. Street Car.  Like the one we rode for over an hour, all over town, up and down its steep hills.




A Lagniappe:   Watching the World Cup playoffs on TV 


A Notice:  Now that Thanksgiving has past, I am posting my first Christmas Tree on my Christmas Tree Farm blog.  See it at
