The Weekend Roundup, 'D'

It is the eve of the week's last two days and a perfect time for Tom's fun meme The Weekend Roundup. The fourth letter of the alphabet is our prompt today...

First off is Dolly the Merino sheep. She lives at Twitchell-Rowland Homestead in Oxford CT. Taken in the Spring, I wouldn't mind seeing this ewe in her soft luxurious Merino wool coat!

Our Daughter marched for the Derby Historical Society for the Derby-Shelton Memorial Day parade a few years ago...

After her part of the parade was finished, Dad (guess who :) and Daughter watched as the parade continued

An egg with a Double Yolk found its way into our refrigerator...

A Favorite. This morning, the always lovely Patti captured this Kalanchoe outside our home full of raindrops from last night's thunderstorm. I love the texture and soft red hues. Have a great week all!

The Weekend Roundup, 'O'

In this odd time, it is always great to return to a favored meme. The Weekend Roundup, hosted by Tom. The fourth vowel is featured...

Given my heritage, the Buckeye State, Ohio, starts with 'O'. Above, I believe this to be 1938 and my dad is standing in front of a covered wagon emblazoned with Fort Ohio. A cursory look brought me to a historic fort near Cumberland, Maryland. Children were dressed up for such occasions it seems in the 1930s...

A year later, my dad is standing in front of the Ohio exhibit at the New York World's Fair in 1939.

About 15 minutes from home is the town of Oxford, Connecticut

Last Winter, Patti captured this lady Cardinal with its Orange beak.

A Favorite was captured last from inside the vehicle (way more than 6 ft. from anybody :), this being the reservoir at Witek Park in Derby CT as a new season begins. Have a happy Easter and a great week!
