The Weekend Roundup 'F'

It is a cold Saturday, so this inside dweller is ready for Tom's fun meme The Weekend Roundup. The archives  have been searched and subjects, so let's begin...

Beginning with 'F' includes In-Flight. It was Dec. 1980 and I was going to Florida. Here is a view out he window of a Delta L-1011 winging toward West Palm Beach. Note the Rolls-Royce engine...

Another view In-Flight is on the way home of the same trip on a very early morning flight on Jan. 2, 1981. The sun is rising over the starboard wing of a Delta 727 after leaving Atlanta. The scanned print is a bit pixelated - but the colors are still vibrant!

How about First Day of school? Here is 1997 as the neighborhood children await the school bus. Our daughter is far left (3rd grade) and son is third from left (1st grde)

A favorite are these birds that the always lovely Patti captured recently. We don't know what they are, but they look great in their gold trim. Have a great week all!

  1. ...Ralph, you sure have a wealth of photos to draw on. I didn't start taking photos until about 10 years ago. What a 'F'un look back at the 'F'irst day of school. I don't know what your 'F'eathered 'F'riends are either. Thanks for stopping by, enjoy your week.

  2. I think your bird is a Starling. Pretty as they are, they sure can be a pest around my feeders, they scare away all the other birds. Nice photo of the kids heading to school! Have a good week, Ralph!

  3. Starlings are fine looking birds, but I don't think they are very nice birds. Love seeing the first day of school pic. Enjoyable F post!
