Letter "J" -- Friday's Weekend Roundup 11 and Reflections and-or Street/Candid Captures

From Tom, This Week's Prompts: Starts with "J." A Favorite. "J"oy. 
James' request, "Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid Captures."

Cousins from Nebraska standing by Sam Houston (2006)

Starts with "J"Jack is my cousin from Nebraska.  He and Mrs. Jack were visiting the Houston area to visit his grandkids who live here now.

A Favorite:  This is  my Favorite Jeep.  We found it in Key West, Florida.  

I've always wanted a Jeep, ever since my neighbor bought on right after the end of WWII.  I would settle for a Jeepster.  I have a toy Jeepster now, I found it at the Dollar Store for $1.25.  It is the little blue car in the picture below.



 

Tom's choice, "Joy":  My Grandchildren are my Joy of old age.  Memories and visits.  This is the youngest when she was four, on a cruise trip to Istanbul and beyond into the Black Sea.  

Ukraine was a pretty country back then, way back then in 2013.  BTW, this one is the youngest granddaughter, she is 14 now and is a high school freshman.

Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid CapturesThese fellows were stealing water from our little creek. I am not sure where they we going and what they would do with that water. I hope for their sake they don't drink it. [Adi and I caught them in the act in one of our walks (link).] 


Third posting of this one.  You can tell I'm real proud of it:

 

Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid Captures:   Taken in Italy near our hotel when visiting the Cinque Terre.  We had a rental car, of course.  (Note:  Bad, but I may be too old to rent a car anymore.)

Blue Moon -- an Eight Line Poen for Blue Monday


Shined Last Night

Blue moon shined last night 
Made my room bright, through 
upper window shone 

Enhanced by the clouds 
Shining shades of blue 
Smiles on you and me 

Rarity, it comes 
once in a Blue Moon
