Letter "G" -- Friday's Weekend Roundup 11 and Reflections and-or Street/Candid Captures
- Tom's This Week's Prompts Starts with "G." A Favorite. and, "G"reat.
Starts with "G": Three Generations, this may be my favorite three generation photo even though five years have passed and the granddaughter is now a freshman in high school.
A Favorite: old, just a little bit younger than me. It is my Hurst Gyroscope and is pre-WW-2. It is sitting on the instruction paper which had the price, $1.00, but no Copyright which would have had a date. Gyroscopes have been around a long time so patents have all expired. A quick Google search found, "The Hurst Gyroscope 1940s toy! This is the precursor to the fidget spinner …" and was pictured as mine.
Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid Captures: Middlle of six (third from oldest) Granddaughter. She has a Great Job now in NYC, she and boyfriend will be here for Thanksgiving. Education is completed Master's Degree in Mathematics. Here I caught her smelling flowers after a family wedding in which she was a part of.

Tom's Choice, "Great": This is a three-year-old picture of my youngest Great-granddaughter. My oldest great-granddaughter has two children of her own now.
Here she is again, this Spring, on stage, singing her part in a 'small one's' children's play her acting group put on.

Who? -- a Blue Monday post
Dresser Top Stuff
Who gets top billing
Who gets the fastest racer
Who gets a comic all his own
Who's the favorite of all my toys
Who has the comic I'm sure to read
Who has a brother in the Arizona desert
Dare I tell the answer to these questions
Will it make the
others jealous
Which comic makes me happiest
Who is the little dog
Sleeps on top
Top of his
House
It's Snoopy the comic's hound
[the following is from last weeks's post--I linked it wrong the other day]
Something Sweet
Blue wrap--something sweet
Help yourself they're really good
More where these came from
All my sweets have blue wrappers
Gum drops Chocolates Peppermints
