Sundays in My City

Unknown Mami hosts a wonderful photo-themed meme on Sundays, when people from all over the world post photos representing their cities. This week, I have kind of a hodgepodge and am going to make up for skipping last week.

In my neck of the woods, I came upon a very elusive, but beautiful, bird family. Here's the best shot I could get...


I'm also still enamored with this funky tree, now in the midst of a farm field of happy yellow something-or-other.


Our friends, Mike and Sandy, had us over for fish on Friday night. No, not the fish in their backyard coy pond. Their dog couldn't wait for dinner, though, and helped himself to the fish food (as in the food belonging to the fish!)


It was pretty hot/muggy outside (we were cooking/eating in their very nice, clean garage.) and this guy...


was dying to go swimming and eat some fish! (What a good dog!! He did not jump in, though he got really close.)

This little baby got a good workout that night...


Think fresh walleye, shoestring fries, and my first-ever, deep-fried green peppers!


I saved the best two photos for last.

Here's the partner-chefs doing the dishes after serving that amazingly delicious meal.

(Yes, Mike knows he looks like Uncle Fester.)

That's my man right there on the right and below...

(Just so you know, that's not a wart on Mr.4444's cheek; it's a bead of sweat, and if you look very, very, carefully, you'll see another one starting on the end of his nose.)

I know, I know....I've got it good.

Unknown Mami's got it good, too; she lives in San Francisco and always has great shots to share. Why not stop by and say hi?!
