You're not the first to tell me there had been more just moments earlier.

They ruin the atmosphere in the area. You're sitting around in peace and quiet, then you hear that irritating music constantly playing. Maybe stuff some Tofu in the speaker. ;)<BR/> Great pictures Hilary! I loved the rainbow one.

We don't have ice cream trucks here but we do have men driving around selling other goodies: ramen, tofu, sticky rice cakes and long aluminum poles used for hanging out laundry. I think the kids around here would adore one of those obnoxious ice cream trucks. They're very used to cars with loud speakers.

That makes their products Ice Edible Oil Cones, Hydrogenated Sundaes, Trans Fat on a Stick.. Yuck! Your cardiologist will thank me. ;)<BR/><BR/>Thanks Tink,<BR/><BR/>I'm not good with flowers. I can't identify many of them and I tend to kill most plants under my care. My sister got the gardening gift in our family. <BR/><BR/>Hi Crabby,<BR/><BR/>Well she could have easily been having a bit of a temper tantrum. It was hard to tell for sure from my viewpoint, but I prefer to think she was having fun. ;)<BR/><BR/>Thanks to all three of you for your kind words. :)Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2629654067597010887.post-39723172829009856122007-09-13T16:05:00.000-04:002007-09-13T16:05:00.000-04:00Those are amazing pictures!(And I was glad to hear...Those are amazing pictures!<BR/><BR/>(And I was glad to hear the little girl was just playing hide and seek--thought at first we might be witnessing some kind of traumatic breakdown!)Crabby McSlackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12108791388350253344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2629654067597010887.post-60343891716364113672007-09-13T14:56:00.000-04:002007-09-13T14:56:00.000-04:00Beautiful pictures!
