Here are the three Ralphs (Ralves?) on the New Jersey shore in the Summer of 1964. L_R is Grandpa (Ralph I), myself (Ralph III) and Dad (Ralph II). A trio, tribune or trifecta of namesakes beginning with 'R'!
A Favorite. We've not had a hard frost yet this year in Southern CT, so the foliage has not been very colorful as a whole, only occasional bold colors appear. And one of those places is on a maple tree in our back yard. So at least we won't have to drive to Vermont for autumnal hues!
What a great trio of Ralphs! That ramp is impressive,too. Happy weekend to you and the rest of the Ralphs!
ReplyDelete...'R'alph, 'R' is custom made for you. I am the third Tom in my family (different middle names though.) Your 'R'amp may draw attention, but you also need folks who don't one of those special parking spots up by the door to stop hogging them. No frost here either. Your new blog seems to working out well. Thanks for being here.
ReplyDeleteI like the "Three "R's", Ralph. I am thinking that is your grandfather in the header with the 50's Ford business wagon because he was a Ham (I forgot his call, mine is K1TLT) and the door wagon lettering is for his communication company.
ReplyDeleteAlso good wishes for you new blog. Mine probably need replacing but I had to lose my old posts.

should say "... 'hate' to lose my old posts."

The colour of that tree is stunning. Ralph. Have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteHi - Ralph's wife here. The fall colors were late this year, but at least they arrived!
DeleteI had an uncle Brendan, then his son, my cousin, Brendan and then he had a son Brendan.
ReplyDeleteYou sure do have some beautiful fall color in that tree.
ReplyDeleteNice "R" post this week, Ralph. I like the three generation pic! My Dad, my brother and his son, also the same as your family. I wonder if it's still as popular to have Jr., and the III in a family today? I don't hear of it as much. There's nothing like a maple tree in the fall, the color never disappoints anyone! Have a good week!
