GROANER’S CORNER:(( A little girl asked her mother for a dollar to give to an old lady in the park. Her mother was touched by the child's kindness, and gave her the dollar. "There you are, my dear," said the mother. "But, tell me, isn't the lady able to work any more?" "Oh yes," came the reply. "She sells candy."

There's a story about the military pilot calling for a priority landing because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit peaked." Air Traffic Control told the fighter jock that he was number two behind a B-52 that had one engine shut down. "Ah," the pilot remarked, "the dreaded seven-engine approach."
Love the cow pasture!
ReplyDeleteGotta love the countryside is this area, soon you be back on the road again!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid in the '40s and '50s, we had a Farmall tractor with steel wheels with the lugs as shown in your first picture. I don't think I've ever seen another until today. BTW, stop apologizing about having nothing special in your day to write about. Your readers don't care-we like your style-and your photos-and your walks-and your drives-and Kelly-and Pheebs. Always remember that.
ReplyDeleteAmen Barbara!
DeleteWhat's special in your days is always your photos.
ReplyDeleteQUOTE:
We’ve come to accept “a picture is worth a thousand words” as truth in our culture because of the ability of a photo to quickly convey so much meaning with so little, if any, explanation. But in the age of social media and cameras on mobile devices, when photos are shared with more regularity than ever, does the powerful ability of a single image to convey so much feeling, information and complexity get taken for granted?
Perhaps a look back at the earliest known uses of the phrase will remind us of the specialness of the photos we share.
One of the earliest known references to the expression is from a 1911 newspaper article in which newspaper editor Arthur Brisbane, speaking about journalism and publicity, says “Use a picture. It’s worth a thousand words.” END QUOTE.
'nuff said.
That radiator has me stumped. It is cast iron and un-pressurized and still has the water cap on it. I can no make out the lettering. The log appears to be TC or CT, I will have to go through my thousand or so museum pics. It anyone knows, post a reply and save me from another obsession.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the pics, appears that lens works well with you behind it.
