This and That Again



Great weather now, but still, al fresco dining in greater Hartford is
nearing an end for this year.  Fun while it lasted.


Johnny and I met in downtown New Britain.
I was hoping for a good story about the flaming skull on his baseball cap.
But, it is just a cap.


The guy who was feeding them stood up too fast, scaring the heck out of the ducks.

    wow the duck's image is impressive! :) I would like to have a delicious coffee and chat with friend in this place. Looks cozy and charming there. I like a lot your first composition.
    Happy weekend Jack!

    Grants looks like a pleasant place for lunch and a chat, but I think I'd go into the shop next door, The Second Time Around, first. I'm a devoted thrift and consignment shop customer. Perhaps that's why I am now having a hard time down-sizing!

    I have heard those heaters for outdoor dining referred to as "Canadian palm trees."

    Your portraits are always wonderful, Jack.

    You sure were quick to capture those ducks.

    I think those ducks are giving the people there a shower.

    As long as I can sit outside at my favorite cafe and enjoy a mug of coffee it is still Summer to me!
