1. It's apple blossom time and Winchester is celebrating with "
The Bloom" this weekend. I hope their big parade doesn't get rained out. We won't be going anyway because Frank is supposed to stay off his feet.
2. Marie was in town last weekend for a work-related event. Lynn and I drove up to Reston on Monday and had lunch with her before dropping her off at Dulles Airport.
I took this picture of Marie in a restaurant. The lighting was poor and had an orange cast so I converted this to
black and white.
3. Today Peggy and Bill stopped by for a brief visit. They are going to a memorial service tomorrow in Northern Virginia. Bill is a cancer survivor but he lost his left eye to chemotherapy.
Bonus picture: Bill took this photo of me with Peggy. Can you tell we're sisters?
4. Yesterday at John's Family Restaurant, I noticed a
sign (lower left below) with this message in chalk:
We don't have Wi-fi. Pretend it's 1995 and talk to each other.
5. Also seen in John's Family Restaurant,
reflections of a chandelier.
6. On my way home one afternoon, I crossed the railroad tracks and was so impressed by the way they glowed that I parked the car and walked back to take a picture. Apparently my cell phone did not like my shooting toward the sun because it gave me a message that it was overheating and would shut down the app!
I'm so sorry for Bill however he looks happy!
