Letter "I" -- Friday's Weekend Roundup 11 and Reflections and-or Street/Candid Captures
[Note: I may be out of pocket for next week's post.]
James' request, "Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid Captures."

Starts with "I": This crafted model outdoor 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 displayed in the foyer of our church at Christmas time.
Both children and adults stop for their Imaginations' workouts.
A Favorite: I had found this Insane Driving cartoon on one my Facebook friend's pages and pasted it here in April, 2017. I can't remember who, but it floats around I'm sure.
Mrs. Jim seems to be more concerned with my driving since we moved out of the country and back in to YUPs (Young Urban Professionals) land.
Most of the YUPs drive really fast and dart in and out of traffic. Not the peaceful Montgomery setting she was used to driving in.
Tom's request is "Ice Cream": We have switched to Aldi's Ice Cream. These are $2.49, but being cheaper isn't the reason we switched from Blue Bell. They used to have our favorite, "Homemade Vanilla Lite", we would buy that and some others with. But they dropped having 'Lite' Ice Cream and we don't buy the others either now.

Reflections and
Last week's Street Photo/Candid Capture (in case you missed it): Taken in Italy near our hotel when visiting the Cinque Terre towns. We had a rental car, of course, and had it parked by the train station. (Note: Bad also, I may be too old to rent a car anymore.)

The Mistreated Car -- two Ditties for Blue Monday and Shadow Shots 2
 |
| [In the Walmart lot, I parked beside this mistreated Blue Toyota] |
How Now Blue Car?
Once was pretty blue
Owner does not garage me
Skin's brown peeled and worn
 |
| [A spine poem, Senryu--her skin may be well cared for] |
A Sleight of Shadows
Lay your body down
Even if everything ends
The skin and its girl
