Re: [MC74 and Friends] Cars

Dear Em Ci, Mr Kiu and PNEH friends,

Here's my entry for cars. I took these photos on black Friday.
I don't know if you remember Bijan (he was really hot back
in the late 70's early 90's for his perfume I think).  The
car was parked in front of his famous Rodeo Drive's boutique

What I didn't know, and found out afterwards is that he 
had a collection of very expense cars all painted yellow, 
and that he passed away earlier this year of a stroke and
brain surgery, sad... the Bugatti costs $1.5M+ hmmm 
how much do you think my collage is worth? hi hi

Have a great WE,
BT



Re: [MC74 and Friends] Tr: HORIZONS

HL,

Your shot of the two "thuyền thúng" and the caption helped me come up with this under-the-wire entry for Chân trời".  This is the first time I've tried verses in Vietnamese.  It's so hard my head hurts.

RE: [MC74 and Friends] My first chan troi

Dear fellow PNEHs and friends,

To provide a counter point of view to all your gorgeous pictures and Thu Huong’s striking painting of horizon, may I offer a different horizon.  Without water, mountains, trees, not even clouds…  All it has was dirt, nothing but dirt, and more dirt.  It’s a dirty job, but someone has gotta do it J.  And it’s only hundreds of miles from civilization…

West Texas horizon where earth and sky meet…

It feels good to "mo hang" again.

[MC74 and Friends] My last chan troi

Dear fellow PNEHs and friends,

These were all from last week hiking to the 'Top of the World'
(so they call it in Alta Laguna :-))

 It's only 15' south of CDM (about 25' south of Orange County 
I think); so if you haven't been, you've got to, especially early
in the morning to see the sunrise ( I missed it but will be back 
for a future sunrise theme hi hi)

Cheers,
BT

Re: [MC74 and Friends] Last fall pictures

Dear BT, MC, PNEHs and Friends,
 
I would like to contribute to the Fall theme. Attached are my entries.
Chênh chếc đầu gành tỏa khói sương
Thu vế nghe gió thoảng sau vườn
Lá vàng rơi rụng hồn thu điểm
Để cánh lòng tôi mãi nhớ thương

Re: [MC74 and Friends] Last fall pictures



Dear Blog Bosses, fellow bloggers:

Bi. do`i no*. by MC, but having no photos to contribute for Fall theme, may I instead recite a little poem? I was reminded of this poem when MC recently posted a picture for Fall she named La' Thu-Phong. I forgot who the author of these verses was ( could be Tan-Da`). Here it goes:


Trận gió thu-phong rụng lá hồng
Lá bay tường Bắc lá sang Đông
Hồng bay mấy lá năm hồ hết
Thơ-thẩn kìa ai vẫn đứng không.

Trận gió thu-phong rụng lá vàng
Lá bay hàng xóm lá bay sang
Vàng bay mấy lá năm già nửa
Hờ-hững ai xui thiếp phụ chàng.


Hope you all like it.

T.

horizon

Well, here's something I wrote for A.Vinh a while back called Either way.  TNS's Horizon with sun rays reminded me of it.

If there really are other suns,
Find the one, then come round for me.

But if there is no elsewhere to here,
Then let me cup your face in my hands
And hold the drawn breath between us
Till it wisps into once upon.

[MC74 and Friends] Last fall pictures



Dear PNEH and friends,

 Since my Twin kindly agrees to it, here some fall pictures just
in time before the close of the Fall theme today :-)

1. Persimmon for you
2. Guess who
3. 'Real' change of colour (Bostonian vs. Californian)
4. Fall knick-knacks 
5. Pumpkin smile ( so it looks to me)

Have a great week and thanks for your patience ... the fall collage
will be published tomorrow, so there's still time to send your 
entry in for the late birds like me.

Cheers,
BT







[MC74 and Friends] My last FALL entries, for real


Dear twin, fellows PNEH, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,

I honestly thought the two previous entries I sent in were the end of it.
But after getting the very kind reviews from KH, HL, KL, Quang, TNS, I felt so happy and encouraged. Ne^n du*o*c. the^? lam\ to*i' :-)

I took a walk to the library this weekend and saw gorgeous colors on some of the trees, pink/burgundy hues and bright orange. Here are two photos to share with you.

This is it, you won't have to see more photos of FALL from me, at least until next fall, because BiTi is back and after some much needed rest (due to having too much fun in CDM) :-), she will do the collage for FALL tomorrow.   

Goodnight and have a wonderful Tuesday

[MC74 and Friends] my last entries (really?) for FALL

Dear twin, fellows PNEH, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,

I just came back from my neighbors' backyard, where the grass was so inviting under the gorgeous blue sky...
I was greeted by Mai Khoi with " Mom, I just saw you lying down on the grass for a long time, like a crazy woman"??? !!!
 I guess I should have thanked her for skipping the word "old" as in "crazy old woman".

So here are two photos resulting from my lying on the grass, my last ones for FALL, before the theme closes (unless BiTi changes her mind :-)).

Enjoy your day after Thanksgiving for those in the US, and have a wonderful Thursday everyone.
