Letter "S" --- Friday's Weekend Roundup 10 / Reflections and-or Street/Candid Captures

 - Tom's Requests: Starts with "S"; A Favorite; and Tom's suggestion, "S..." 
 - James' request, Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid Captures.

Starts with "S":   Letter "S" starts for She Shed.  This was Cousin Mary's a few years before she replaced it. Above is Mary's potting and garden Shed. She spent a lot of time here doing things to keep the yard so pretty. In addition to the flower beds you see she also grew few rows of vegetables.

We all had a nice visit. Of course with Southern hospitality we had plenty to eat. I had a nice ham sandwich and chips. Mrs. Jim had brought a Key lime pie and she very nicely divided it into eight pieces. Mary's sister, Nellie and husband had brought some citrus fruit from the Florida orchards, so we all had a tangerine. 

Mary died in December, 2020, a couple of years since she bought her new She Shed.  (Her obituary, URL)  We attended her funeral and visited with her family, probably for the last time.

A Favorite:   


 

These Segways aren't for sale, you can rent them.
You are seeing my first ride on
one of these wonderful fun machines.




Roger, Luke, and Mrs. Jim stood in the shade
while we tried the Segways out.

Tom's suggestion, "Silence":   This Segway machine is very quiet, one could sneak up on a person, it transports its rider in total SilenceThey rented them in Telluride, Colorado, and I was next for a test ride. Neither of us rented.


 

Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid Captures:  Adi appreciated the yard as a nice place for her walk but I don't think she really appreciated the rain as much as we did. Rain had been very scarce that year.

Check her out in the second picture as she patiently waited for me to finish taking She Shed and other back yard pictures.  Adi died at age 15 after a good life of being our friendly pet Beagle dog.  We also were a Pet Animal Therapy Pair.   Read more here, Adi's Meme.
