shiny cars

shiny cars
dingy townhouses
bare trees
gray sky
single street light
snow route
worn shingles
smokeless chimneys
fading paint
fake yards
unkempt plant life
unseen roses
silence
Sunday afternoon
home sweet home

Where we lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts. That’s our red VW, a wedding gift from D’s mother, parked in front of the entrance to our apartment on the second floor. Home sweet home.

Memories! My VW wagon was orange – much to my chagrin – but I could always find it! 🙂

My first car was like the blue one behind. A 1961 Beetle

Absolutely! I drove a bug in later years. Such fun scooting around town.

I really like this one, Elouise… probably because it’s so realistic. 🙂
