SUNDAY BRIDGES--dilapidated...

A cell phone photo of a very dilapidated bridge earlier this spring. I hope to make up for this unattractive bridge, since I'll be in France very soon.....

WEEKEND REFLECTION--Welcome!

The thick, syrupy fruit in the bowl, cherries, is called 'slatko' here, meaning sweet. It is offered to guests whenever they stop by.  Fruit varies according to season.  The custom is that you take a spoon, take some 'slatko', a drink of water from a glass on the tray, then put your used spoon in the glass. In this case, there were four guests, as you can see.

SKYWATCH--Serbian sunset

It's hot, hot, hot here....in the high 90's. And humid.  Need I say more?

Off soon to a much cooler France, from what I hear.

Here's a Serbian sunset for you.

Back in Serbia

I'm back in Serbia, and guess who's glad to see me?  Granddaughter Mila will be two next month.

Off for two weeks soon to France, short but sweet, and back in time for her birthday!

ABC WEDNESDAY--"X" is for "XS"

Extra-small (XS) is what this Yorkie is. How would you like to walk around amidst giants all day long?

Darth Vader is alive and well

He's alive and well, and seems to have gone through some sort of mid-life change of profession.  Here he was, fiddling away on a street corner in Victoria, B.C.  Got a young chick, too.

Could one say he's still fit as a fiddle? (Couldn't help that one....groan.)

Phone booth, recycled

A unique and spiritual recycling of a phone booth!  Taken outside a Mexican restaurant in the Queen Anne neighborhood of Seattle.

Returning home to Belgrade soon....and then off to Paris shortly thereafter....

SUNDAY BRIDGES - Victoria, B.C.

The Johnson Street Bridge in Victoria, B.C.  Daughter and I came up for an overnighter in this quaint city.

Didn't cross the bridge....

WEEKEND REFLECTION--the house in the mirror

Old house in need of repair with a mirror to reflect the house in better shape across the street.

SKYWATCH--through a saltdrop window

Took the Victoria Clipper from Seattle to Victoria, B.C. (2.5 hours) this past weekend with my daughter.  A view of the sun through a saltdrop window...

See other skies on SKYWATCH.

P.S. When I linked to Skywatch, I learned that yesterday, June 20th, in 1837 Queen Victoria ascended to the throne of England. Great Britain and Ireland She reigned for 63 years and seven months.

Red Robin

Nothing stunning about this photo of a robin, but it's just to tell you that the little Pine Sisken, which I showed you right here last May,was successfully rehabilitated by PAWS and released into the wild!

A happy ending.
