Random Observations

 



Here are a few random observations from around town over the last few weeks.  

First up, a very strange looking vehicle encountered at a traffic light.  I noticed it has only three wheels on the ground and that extra one on the back.


To the left, a very tall and very skinny couple standing in the lobby of an office building.  











Above we have some lavender growing nice and tall just outside the salon where I get my hair cut.


The one to the right was taken two weeks ago in my friend Glenda's back yard.  We were sitting out there sipping a glass of wine when this hummingbird came buzzing no more that three feet away from me.  I snapped this with my iPhone.  I honestly didn't think I'd get anything but it turned out better than I imagined.  







This last one was spotted in the window of a shop selling antiques and gifts.  You never know when a fake cupcake might come in handy.  At least I think they are fake.  The shop was closed so I couldn't tell for sure.


Just thought I'd add this for the fun of it.  Evidence of our over-the-top heat wave.

  3. Ugh! That heat! The car is very peculiar. It seems like it might not be very well-balanced with a single rear wheel. The sculptures are very Giacometti.

  4. I love the three wheeler, Morgan built one of those a few years ago, I don't think it was sold in the USA, most likely people will have to wait until it is 25 years old and import it as an antique.

  8. Well, I for one enjoyed all of the things you encountered this week except for that temperature! I am hoping it cools off for you.

  9. The cupcakes may be fake Sharon but they still did the job of making me want one desperately 😉 I heard about your heatwave, oh boy I am so glad we're heading into winter!
