This is a beautiful plant- however, it looks more like a coleus than a caladium (?)
I see you added ghost dog to this one too. I'll be looking for him in all your pics now.
Thank you for sharing these - I absolutely love them. And many thanks to Linda from Maine for providing the link to the gallery - I have added it to my favorites list.
That brings back memories- happened to me about 50 years ago in a van.

I like it. For me, it has a slight surrealistic Dali feel to it.
More like Georges Braque.
I like it too
Still using our scythe and loving it, Yes, you do need a sharpening stone close at hand.

I think maybe there was a Twilight Zone episode like this also back in the '60s.
Yes, it was "To Serve Mankind" - turned out to be a cookbook

Went down another degree - now it's Minus 10 F. Looks Like I win the coldest contest so far. Not complaining though - I've seen it way colder here.

Django is still one of my favorites - thanks for the link. We have a number of cassette tapes we listen to frequently. And one of the very best concerts I've seen was Stephane Grappelli when he played at the Troy Music Hall - he was in his eighties and still hot. He did one number on the piano too.

Back in 66 we got a new Commander at the Air Force Tech school at Sheppard AFB, he put and end to spit shined shoes and Starched Fatigues, his reasoning was that to much study time was being wasted on these tasks.
This reminds me of one of the letters my Dad sent to Mom when he was in the AAC, He was at Sheppard in Aug 1941 and was a member of the first graduating class there. Then went to Utah and his Sgt stopped the marching , drilling exercises because it was taking too much time from their more important studies.

The requirement for the label was a generic description only of the photograph, no real titles. The title she’s exhibiting the photograph under is “Jim.”
Thanks, Bob.
I think he was referring to the title of your post- he was expecting it to be a picture of your granddaughter
My mom (born 1916) and my aunt also remember the hobos coming up the back alley and to the side door to ask for something to eat in exchange for work. My grandmother would make them a sandwich served on the picnic table in the back yard. This was in Scranton,Pa. They did not live near the tracks, and someone later told my grandmother that they left some sort of mark in the alley that let others know "kind lady - will feed you" , or something on that order.
Wow, those are VERY well used. We have probably 50 or more of them on the train layout - most in much better shape. The really beat up ones are parked in the hobo village. If it's a Matchbox the car is ID'd on the bottom- year, make and model.
