Nonnie's Photo A Day: Nostalgia Collage

NOSTALGIA… Sweet Pea,
Hotel Taft, Dallas mural,
eggs & grandfather’s home

I remember the sweet, soft smell of Sweet pea talcum powder.  
I picture the apartment bathroom where the talc sat near the tub.

The building’s mural was admired
As my husband and I walked around 
my uncle’s Dallas neighborhood.

Our high school senior class stayed 
in the Hotel Taft during our senior trip to New York and 
Washington D.C.

The home pictured here is the way the home looked 
when  my great-grandfather was still alive.

The easter eggs- 
this was the last time 
my youngest granddaughter dyed eggs with me. 
She considers herself too old to do it now.

Joining others (my first time)
for Nostalgia


Hoosier Quote about Nostalgia:
"Who recalls when folks got along without something
if it cost too much."

A nice collection of images and words. I reminds me of the template poem for Where I'm From: http://www.looseleafnotes.com/2005/04/where-im-from/

Photo Walk

buildings reflected surprise- I'm standing right here but not visible! Our teacher guided us to stand in front of the joint of the two rounded panes of glass,  leading us to realize that we cast no reflection. sharing with two of my favorite memes Rebecca's   Haiku My Heart and James' Weekend Reflections
