Happy NewYear! The first Friday of 2020 means it is time for Tom's fun meme The Weekend Roundup. The first letter/vowel is fairly easy this week, so here we go...
Beginning with 'A' is Amphicar, a quirky German auto (1961-1967) that could drive on lamd and water, see the twin props underneath. Neither car nor boat, I've read that many succumbed to rust from being in the water and not a great car on the road. However it is cute and I suppose US Coast Guard compliant - note the floatation devices within...
Here is a cool restored 1931 Ford Model 'A' (hauling an equally cool retro style trailer).
Here is Three Saints Orthodox Church in our town of Ansonia, Connecticut
Here is an Awesome New Year's Day morning over our front year!
Week's Favorite. Quite awhile back, our daughter Allegra delayed her Arrival a week to be born on Patti's birthday, December 29. Since Allegra was in Boston for the weekend, we sang Happy Birthday on New Year's Eve.
I'll add one of my favorite photos of my favorite ladies, Allegra and her mom Patti on the Housatonic River in 2017. Happy Birthday ladies and a great week to all!
...an Amphicar, what a neat quirky car! I saw one in Maui a few years ago Rare is an understatement!
ReplyDelete...and the Model is SWEET!
...Ansonia was taylor made to start the alphabet.
...Allegra was a welcomed tax deduction that year I would guess!
...Ralph, you indeed have a pair of lovely ladies!
Thanks for being here this week, I hope to see you again.
Happy birthday! Mother & daughter look beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU and happy birthday to both ladies. That Model A Ford is AWESOME
ReplyDeleteA very nice mother daughter picture, Ralph. I remember when those amphibious vehicles came out. Popular Mechanics did a big spread on them. Too bad they rusted badly. I always wanted a Model A pickup,your find is a great one.
