Picture Perfect Friday: Roadside

Suey posted to discuss Picture Perfect Friday:  Roadside.  I had an idea about the subject this afternoon.

 

This photo was taken by me being a passenger in my then fiance's rental car in July 1997.  We were on a summer vacation there at the time my grandfather was very ill.  We were driving on Mosquito Valley Road in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, where some of my relatives live on the same road.  We drove toward north to the valley and then to neighborhood area where many houses and stores and few restuarants are in.  Few miles east of Mosquito Valley Road is where Little League World Series in South Williamsport located.

 

Mosquito Valley Road is a quiet place and beautiful.  It looks like a rural to me.  I grew up in there for many years but my parents have had a house far away from this road.  We lived on a different street in another district in that same city.

Picture Perfect Friday: Summertime Fun

Summertime Fun...  Suey posted discussing summertime fun a picture perfect.  I have great summer memories.  I will never forget them.  Here are my summer photos:

As u can see a picture of 7 yrs old girl in the wheelchair (that's me) along with her 2 of 3 brothers, Joe and Mike, this photo was taken on August 5, 1976 in Washington, D.C.  We were having a summer fun on our vacation.  We kept going there in 3 yrs a row until things were changed in my family's life.  We were visiting Dad's family there.  I was enjoyed eating an ice cream and waving a left hand at Dad (LOL).  I looked cute.  The outfit I wore that day was made by my mother.  Otherwise, the 4th of us, David, was not ready to come into the world yet until 3 yrs later.  David have no idea what's going on in there.



Chicken, the Mascot of San Diego Padres, and me in the wheelchair.  This was taken by a Grit Sport Section newspaper photographer at famous Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania on August 28, 1977.  Williamsport is where I grew up cuz my mother's family lives in.  About this picture, I was having fun at the baseball game and giggled at the Mascot.  LOL!  I had no idea until I saw this picture when I got older.  I probably got back from a trip to Washington, D.C. with Dad and brothers, Joe and Mike, few weeks before, I guess.  Many young baseball players keep coming to Williamsport every August for playing a World Series from all over the world.








This was taken at Bethune Park in New Smyrna Beach on 4th of July 2006.  Deaf people

celebrated that day and played there.  It was hosted by a deaf club officials.  We were having a fun until that late night.  The weather looked hot and sunny all day, no rain.  That's good news for firework viewers.  Several hours before this photo was taken by me, I watched the lanuch of Space Shuttle, Discovery, going up over Daytona Beach area from inside the truck of my deaf friend's hubby, Chuck, at another park.  Wow!  I swear what I saw!  I wish I could take a picture of space shuttle there but didn't bringing with me.  I felt so stupid for not bringing my camera to shoot it.  I left my camera on the chair at a deaf couple's house.  Anyways, I enjoyed watching Discovery flying up into outer space and, disappearing!  I will never forget that special summer day.
