Poppies

Wherever I see them, whenever I see them, poppies always remind me of the old woodshed at the back of the yard, and the patch of flowers my grandmother had planted at one corner.

Here's hoping you fond memories and a peaceful weekend. See you Monday.

Take a gander...

...please!

Annoying hissing geese (even the little ones were hissing), along the canal path near New Hope.

Train

New Hope, Pennsylvania, Saturday evening.

Behold!

Behold the hippopotamus!
We laugh at how he looks to us,
And yet in moments dank and grim,
I wonder how we look to him.

Peace, peace, thou hippopotamus!
We really look all right to us,
As you no doubt delight the eye
Of other hippopotami.
-- Ogden Nash

Horses not permitted

But we were.

A much needed vacation this weekend, to New Hope, Pennsylvania. Crossing over the Delaware to Lambertville, New Jersey, early Saturday morning.
