Letter "Q" -- Friday's Weekend Roundup 12 and Reflections and/or Street/Candid Captures
This Week's Prompts: Starts with "Q." A Favorite. For Tom, "Q"uite". For James, Reflections and/or Street/Candid Captures.
_ _ _ _
Starts with "Q": This Canaille was quietly getting ready for blooming. It is the first flower this spring where a plant that has been cut to the ground has blossoms.
The rabbits living around here have nibbled on some ends when they were more tender.
A Favorite: The Canaille is my Favorite because my father had canailles all around his converted office up in Nebraska.
Those are his canailles around the smaller building. It was converted from a baby chicken brooding house into an office for his seed corn business. There is a yard light on top of the pole, yes there is not a street, it was sitting in our farmyard. I slept on the front porch behind the hedge.
I grew up in the house sitting in the back. It was a two bedroom, four room, two structure built around 1900 and moved to our family farm in 1920. The new owner had bulldozed it down and has burned the rubble.
Read more about that here.
For James, Reflections and/or Street/Candid Captures: The Guadalpe River is great for rafting. I'm not sure why the picture came out so striated.
For Tom, "Quite": This is one is a spot where the river runs Quite smoothly but there are rapids along its route at other places. You can read more about the house and my growing up here.

...Jim, I know that I can get confused easily, but you did it to me with this post. Canaille is word new for me, so I searched Google. I found numerous meaning in French about dogs, but nothing about flowers. Google Lens identifies your flower as Canna, which I expected. So they're known as Canailles in your family, I learned something new this evening. Take care and have a wonderful weekend.
We know the Canaille as Canna here Jim. I have some yellow ones which are in the greenhouse at the moment.
