A Truck Full of Fish



My metal toy truck seems to have an almost full load of fish.  I think the toy block was on sale during the fifties and it is a fancy block with it's interlocking grooves. I have about a dozen of these older blocks which are a part of my toy collection.


I took a very cold walk outside to capture snow photos.  Our snow is not that great looking but it is great that ther isn't a great amount out there.  The afternoon light of a cold day is evident in the sky color.


It is a good time to come inside and have tea and a pear.  My kids in Chicago sent us a box of fancy red pears.  The arrived a few days ago and they are ripening quickly.  We will have to eat fast.  We are told to refrigerate them to slow down their ripening.

I am in the special education department again today.  I am covering a couple of positions with the most important one being following and attending the classes with a nice young man.

Thanks for stopping by my post today.
