It is amazing what we don’t see that is there everyday. I thought whatever will I find RED in Houston? I am in trouble this week. When I really started to looking I found red at every turn. I found -
Red that instructs us and
Red that guides our way
I found red that tells where to save and where to spend
there are places of worship and old buildings with new red roofs…
and red cars and red trucks making fun for you and me
red that is ready to protect us
and red that is hard at work.
And finally there is red that shows our love, and red that gives us a ‘welcome home’.
GingerV: Looks like you did not miss a thing red in Dallas. It is amazing what one sees when one is looking. How many people pass those things every day and never even see them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for showing us Dallas through red colored glasses. It is so much fun traveling with you. I think I missed I few posts. With so many people now, it is hard to keep up.
Next weeks assignment comes from Hensly. It is "Water."
PS: And leave it to you to close with beautiful flowers.
ReplyDeleteHI! Fantastic job on the Paint the Town Red theme this week, your pictures are great and your text is even greater - wow it rhymes!! I love it!!! I had a bit more trouble finding some intersting red things in Germany, but I managed considering that the german folk are more conservative and keep to the natural tones in life. I had fun looking tho. Have a good day, Debby
ReplyDeleteI love your post today. You really found a lot to share and the photos are great. Have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteI thought of stop signs too, but the red brake lights were a brilliant idea.
ReplyDeleteLoved your photos as usual GingerV!
I was also amazed at how much red was used in advertising.
ReplyDeleteWow!
I love the roses, just lovely Ginger,Thanks.
Enjoy your weekend.xx♥
Your photos are, as usual, excellent and I liked the way you gave red a personality and told us what it does...much more than just what it looks like. You tie it all together.
ReplyDeleteGinger, your colors are so vivid and your photos so sharp and well done. I almost posted a stop sign pic that had "4 way" attached to it. Here, I've never seen on that says all way. That would leave no doubt.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great tour.
Great photos. Your angles were perfect to come up the nice shots!
ReplyDeleteIsn't Houston just beautiful and you found all the bright spots of course my friend!!
ReplyDeleteI loved your nice narratives this week as well GingerV. Very nice touch. Tell you daughter Prince and I say hello from Georgia :)
Have a holiday and weekend filled with love, joy and laughter please and.......
Steady On

ReplyDeleteLots of red in your town. Looks like we all have a stop sign! I love the wreath on the door.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures, you really have an eye for the red in town.
ReplyDeleteDallas, girl did you know that I was born and raised there, and coming back in three weeks, for a three week visit...maybe we should do a Dallas blog lunch?
ReplyDeleteLove the red! Patty is right you did not miss a thing...I was wearing red glasses all week, so I missed a few here and there...
Houston - Houston

Neat pictures. Red is in the eye of the beholder. Bravo for finding it.
ReplyDeleteLooking at the payphone made realize that, as cell phone use increases, payphones are disappearing from our cityscapes. Great variety of shots.
