Hello Everyone!

Today I was just ambling along the road,
Ambling along looking at all the trees and their blooms,
Their blooms were ambling along beautiful,
Then all of a sudden I stopped ambling! 6.-flamingo

My ambling took my breath away at what I saw,
What did I see?
A whole area of geese, ducks, flamingos, ostriches, puffins, terns (erns), Nazca Booby.nacza booby
They were just ambling, ambling along. Staying in their little groups.

Now you are probably thinking my brain just ambled away from my head.
Or I went completely crazy. Nope “bonkers” only.
I didn’t want you to amble away from my boring blog, royal tern
So I added a little excitement about the “ambling birds”.

duckIf you are a bird watcher I hope you didn’t faint with all the birds I ambled together.
If you are not a bird watcher barnacle-goose-svalbard-8-june-2013I hope I stopped you from ambling away from my blog.

Have a great day! Hope puffin

Hello! Hello! Everyone!

Carousel what a happy word.

It brings back happy memories when I was a child.
How long ago was I a child?
A few eons ago – I’m seventy (70) looking forward to a couple of more eons.

580b57fbd9996e24bc43bc21I remember riding one at Riverview Park, which has been gone for years now. As I grew up I saw the wear and tear on the horses. Always picked the same one and of course named him. Just to let yo know I wasn’t the only one.
That was always the main attraction during the summer for all types of rides and games. I always won a gold fish when I was there. And for me they lived a long time it must have been the food I was feeding them.

There used to be a place call Kiddieland, which is also closed now. Took my son and nephew there. Miniature train was a great ride along with the carousel.carousel 1

Every carousel was different.

In the movie “Now You See Me” at the end they all hopped on a carousel and then poof, they were gone. Interesting, fascinating, mind-numbing, beguiling wouldn’t you say?7447-illustration-of-a-carousel-horse-pv
