The Weekend Roundup, 'Y'

It is another lovely Friday in Southern Connecticut,, so it's time to be part of Tom's fun meme, The Weekend Roundup. This week's prompt is the 25th letter (and sometimes vowel :) of the alphabet, not that easy. But doable, at least in my photo archives, some from the distant past, some not, and one clue alone fulfills the prompt...

The main prompt is 'Y' and that means Yellow. This is a yellow 8-yard container (often AKA: dumpster). We were getting a new floor and needed to remove the old. This container was the cleanest I've ever seen and it was Yellow!

My big sister is resplendent in Yellow on Easter Sunday, 1968 at our East Hartford CT home. Note the late '60s hair...

My old friend Mike drove Chevrolet Vegas (the ones that didn't rust out completely that is!) and its cousin, this Yellow Chevy Monza. Photo taken in 1990 and the paint was a bit chalky but still Yellow...

Our daughter is wearing Yellow corduroy overalls, looking cute at about 22 months old...

This sunset has a lot of color, its brilliant Yellow a stunning contrast to the bold red hues - the sky looks as if it is on fire. Have a great week all!

  1. Your daughter was really cute in her yellow corduroys. We don't see corduroys around much any more. Our daughter also had a Chevy Malibu for high school, a Yellow 1965 Model.

  2. ...Ralph, there's no missing that YELLOW dumpster and that's the point!
    ...I remember getting all dressed up for Easter too, those were the days.
    ...I haven't seen a Chevrolet Vegas in years!
    ...what a cute and I'm sure that she is the apple of your eye today too!
    ...that sunset is a BIG WOW!
    Thanks my friend for stopping by, take care and stay cool.

  3. I just love old family photos, they're the best! My Dad also had a Chevy Monza about the same year, it was maroon. I hope you're doing well, Ralph. Have a good weekend.
