My scenic spot

Fandango’s FOWC: Picturesque

Going for the short drive from home into the mountains, always take a thermos to have a cup of tea, a snack of some sort depending on when I get to the picnic table at The Raspberry Lookout. Perhaps a biscuit or two or if lunch time, probably a salad roll.

Always be prepared for anything. One time it was a lovely sunny warm day at home but at Raspberry it was about 10c colder. Shorts was a bad decision. Lucky there is always a picnic blanket in the car.

I found it hard to pick the most picturesque

or this one

One day
which seemed
an eternity
a crack
a peep

Oh dear
always hungry
can’t wait
just look at them
just hear them
always hungry

I just have
to ask

this going on
every day

Do you know
what I mean?
You make a plan
you wait
you are tired
Do you know
what I mean?

Going through in Bologna

Fandango’s FOWC: Height
Debbie’s One Word Sunday: Through
John’s Cellpic Sunday

It’s not often a triple dipping comes along does it? I love the colonnades that are a feature of Bologna. This one isn’t as ornate as some of the others but is imposing never-the-less.
