My first Car, the 1950 Studebaker Starlight coupe

[I have quite a few cast iron 1:18 scale toy cars, this one included.]
A word with "X": "Texaco gasoline pump", old fashioned pump gas measured by what's in the glass jar on top, and my 1950 Studebaker Starlight Coupe. Be watching as there are a couple of other words with the letter "X" here today.

My Choice: This one is a repeat of one from last week's blog. My readers may have missed this posting, on it I had a lot of the lake pictures out the south windows of the Library. It is sooo Relaxing, I've spent time, but not sharing with the Art Work fellow here, on the other benches while Mrs. Jim was attending her Book Club meeting.

- James' request, "Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid Captures: I took this on our supposedly Daily Walk. There is a reflection, but the wind was so breezy that the disturbed water was not in the mood for reflections. The brownish cluster spot just beyond the duck's head was a reflection of the second tree cluster from the left.
Mrs. Jim was away with her bridge group on this their playday, so I walked by myself. I noticed that the smaller, younger ducks were gone. I think someone must have captured them for cooking. They would come to a person if that person had some food for ducks.
A Favorite: Isn't she an excellent Beauty, the truck, that is. Of course all the ladies featured on my Calendars she being very nicely kept.

"I will always like the 1949 Ford Pickup., it is one of my favorite old trucks. One like this is what I drove to high school in town for my last two years (the first two years I did not attend a town school, but rather a 10-grade two room country school to which I rode my horse, Minnie).
This one is on the August 2009 NAPA calendar that I have in my collection. Here is a link to read about me and that truck." [Collected from my previous Weekend Roundup May 25, 2018 post,

Hi Jim, my favorite is the gas pump and that gorgeous car! I think I remember seeing your black truck in the past. It's also a beauty! I'm settling in my new home and hoping soon I'll be able to post weekly, again. Have a good week. Dawn
I love that Truck! Hope it has an climate control. Black cars in summertime might not be the best choice if not.
I don't think I've ever seen those old gas pumps here, maybe more in your country than anywhere else but the old ones we have here are few and far between.
