A miscellany like Grandma’s attic in Taunton, MA or Mission Street's Thrift Town in San Francisco or a Council, ID yard sale in cloudy mid April or a celestial roadmap no one folded—you take your pick.

Photo of the Week 8/1/10
Roller Skates in the Adams County Fair Building,
Council, Idaho Friday, July 30th
Please check out today's post at The Days of Wine & Roses; it's the next poem in the A Few More Fold-Out Postcard Sonnets series.
Subby: I was the opposite--never skate boarded, tho I admit it does look like fun. Since I ice skated & played hockey, roller skating was pretty natural. haven't done it in many years, however.
Dave: Thanks! I do like to examine objects in photos.
Hi Raquelle: Even tho I used to be a strong skater, I took a bad fall the last time I went, which I believe was in the 1970s! So glad you liked the photo.

Y'know, I never did learn how to roller-skate. But a skate-board, now that was fun!

Intriguing, the subjects that will make a great image in the right hands - or should I say eyes?
