Don't Fence MeMe In

Whatever the weather is in your area, do not let yourself be"housed" in.  Get out and enjoy life as it comes.



This kitty is letting you know, leave me alone. You cannot fence me in.


This used to be an old, weathered looking fence.  Someone took the time touch it up with bright, pretty colors. A dab of paint here and there can perform miracles.

 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Sometimes miracles fall from heaven, but most of the time, they are right at our feet.

Pink Saturday


Pink Saturday is being brought to you by Beverly at
http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog. You would make her very happy if you dropped by and said hello.


Some crowns have to be earned.  However, if you desire a pink one, Hobby Lobby is the place to go.


One of my greatest pleasure.

Vintage Thingie Thursday

This is mine.

Many fun and interesting things can be found each Thursday when you stopped by Coloradolady's. She  welcomes you to join her at
http://coloradolady.blogspot.com

Having worked for the telephone company 40 years, I receive a calendar each year from the Telephone Pioneers. The following photos were taken from one of those calendars.
Some of the Pioneers sharing an elegant afternoon of fellowship in 1920.


Some of the men preparing to start in a Kiddie Kar Race, 1922.


   A group of Pioneers taking a tour of Chicago in 1924.

The Pioneers gathering to enjoy music and camaraderie, 1952.

The type switchboard I worked on for a long time.

Outdoor Wednesday


        
Glad you dropped by.  Susan, our hostess, has some great outdoor participates each Wednesday. Check them out at
http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com

You do not need a blind to find many of these

wild hogs.  In fact, it is said there are way too many in Texas.
After a long day or night hunt, enjoy the pleasure of a fire pit.


 

Time Sure Changes - Tuesday With MeMe

FOND MEMORIES OF THE PAST ARE KEEPSAKES OF THE HEART

We all cherish the time when our little ones were small.  However, that does not last forever.

We tend to go from this very quickly



to this when our "cubs" leave home. Somewhere along the way, things went from Flower Power to Power Naps.


Then along comes papa "bear" and he joins mama
bear
as there is nothing more to do.

Sit back and smell the roses.

Blue Monday


Smiling Sally

Time for another interesting Blue Monday with Smiling Sally and her friends. They all gather at
http://smilingsally.blogspot.com each Monday.

 
There is a large variety of music going on all the time where I live. No trouble finding your taste here.
Lots of picking and singing goes on at Billy Bob's. This is a very popular establishment for many well known performers.

If that is not your style, then perhaps you would enjoy attending an event at Bass Performance Hall. A very upscale entertainment facility.



A nice view of the seating area.

A lovely ceiling light.

Then we have the Casa Manana the largest performing arts theater in our area. It features many Broadway productions.
