Busy after the holidays....

Gypsies do a fair amount of recycling here in the city, and after New Year's there's lots of paper to pick up. This fellow even managed to find some seasonal oilcloth to use as a seat cover.

It is a great and colorful shot Bibi. Pretty much a street shot!

Happy New Year to Serbia. This is an intriguing picture of a very clever man. Quite the novel use of a garden tractor.

I like the wagon.

Interesting vehicle. It looks like a tiller on the front.

I'm very amused by that contraption...looks rather like a converted tractor and trailer! Nice to see people out and about busily going about their business.

I had to laugh at your comment about being up early on New Year's Day, because I was, in fact, on the golf course at 7:30! It was cold, though. Well, for us; 45 degrees! But it warmed up nicely and before long we were in shirt-sleeves.

I'm playing tomorrow, too. Supposed to be 30 in the morning and only a high of 50 or so...quite cold for us.

We'll be back to normal by Thursday!

Wishing you all the best for 2012!
