The Letter "A" is for:
Aircraft Carrier
USS Yorktown - popular tourist attraction in Mt. Pleasant
I need to visit this again sometime and shoot some detail stuff and I should do it soon because, while nicely painted where the tourists are, the bottom of this old ship is rusting out. The city can't figure out where to get the millions of dollars required to refurbish it -- NO NEW TAXES! -- so will be in danger of sinking in a few years. Although it is in such shallow water and pluff mud that it may have sunk already.
Acrobat
Alligator
(This one was walking across our back yard a couple of summers ago)
Artist
I could let this pass without an acknowledgement of my grandfather
Absurd Architecture
And that does it for this week. Although I do want to get partial credit for at least trying to post on last Friday's scary signs shoot. I had found a couple to put on my post but I ran out of time and couldn't get it up.
BEEP! Being fluent in Beep-ese, as I reported earlier, I realize I had a text message on my phone. I was, surprisingly from Bagman!
BAGMAN (texting): "LOL! Couldn't get it up!! LOL!"
Ignoring him, I continued hastily posting a couple of late pictures for last week.
A scary sign from Oaxaca, Mexico
I think it tells me what to do in case of fire or earthquake.
I decided that I would just run.
As if I really needed a sign...
Mandatory Cruise Ship Lifeboat Drill
As I get older, I probably need signs like this
on all my clothes.
No time to put something cute on my header this week. I need to go and to pull out the pressure washer...
Your house is going to be so clean, updated and lovely that you will not want to sell it. I miss B&B, but everyone should have a holiday.
ReplyDeleteWhat would happen if you turned the pressure washer on the acrobat?! That could put her in a spin.
ReplyDeleteI would have freak out if I see an alligator crawl pass my yard! I've seen a few signage warning of crocs at the Sungei Buloh Wetland here but thank God I didn't see it when I went for a visit, just the monitor lizards...pheww
ReplyDeleteThe idea of having an alligator walking through one's back yard is fascinating! All I ever see are blackbirds, magpies, cats (including my own) and the occasional robin and red squirrel.
ReplyDeletePerhaps putting the picture of the alligator in the back yard on the wall might make your house more saleable - or not!
ReplyDeleteAs for having front on the jacket - I need left and right on my shoes nowadays. Good job it doesn't matter with socks.
Jamaica? I wanna go there.
ReplyDeleteSuch clever Letter A's. I guess you ARE planning to mention the Alligator in your Realtor Disclosure papers. Glad to see you weren't demonstrating the life jackets Front while Floating! Good luck on your de-cluttering and sale.
ReplyDeleteSome great photos. I would not care for an alligator either. I am sure they are everywhere down there. Yes you must disclose that critter.

Thank you for starting my day off with a smile- I love the photo of you in the life jacket. I'm not telling my recent fashion faux pas but it seriously wounded my ego. I say it is because of my failing eyesight... and that photo of the alligator in your back yard? Egads!!.
ReplyDeleteIt's so much fun to scratch a line though finished tasks. Getting a home ready for sale is a LOT of woe, though.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Better hide that photo of the alligator from any and all prospective buyers. Not a selling point, I fear. :))
Wow you have done all the winter works we have not done ours yet. I had a good laugh with all that signs. I guess when we grow mature we need those a lot hahaha!
ReplyDeleteFMTSO
If that list of tasks is for one day, I think those other two should hauls their butts back and help you!
ReplyDeleteI'm not even going to think about an alligator in my back yard, have memories of living near crocodiles and don't want to stir them up. So, for me, the acrobat is my favourite shot. And the Front sign - love it.
An alligator in a backyard is a scary thing. but the photo is great.
ReplyDeleteWith alligators walking across the back yard I'm surprised you did not decide to move sooner... I hope none of those come by at the same time as prospective buyers ;)
