Ruby Tuesday Too - Jaipur Elephant En Route to the Amber Fort

Many tourists enjoy riding an elephant to the Amber Fort.  I did it the easy way - in a
taxi with my favorite driver, Lala.  I felt too sorry for the elephant to burden him with my
weight.

Ruby Tuesday 2 - My Elephant Shoes - March 26, 2013

My beloved friend, Charlene Payton, knows me so well.  Of course, she has 
shared my life for about 40 years since we worked together for a year as
young nurses ( yes, even I was young once ).  We have stayed in touch ever
since, traveling together all over the world, even dragging the children along
sometimes.

Char is well aware of how much I like elephants and she has even donated a
few to my collection.  When she spotted some very special shoes at Alegria.com,
she immediately made me aware of them.  Of course, with a price tag of $109,
I decided I didn't need them that badly.  However, I did keep going back to look
at them and, yes, I now own a pair.  I just love them.  They are extremely
comfortable but quite heavy so I will probably need to wear them on my flight
back to India June 1.  They are perfect for Ruby Tuesday.

Here are my Alegria Paloma Golden Elephant shoes ( thanks, Char! ):

Ruby Tuesday 2 - Mel's Diner, San Francisco, California, January 29, 2013

Recently, I had lunch with a friend at Mel's Diner.  It's always a fun place to eat, with an 
extensive menu and lots of red everywhere.

No romance for me, sad to say, but out with a great friend!

There was even plenty of 60's music!

Even red in my blouse...

I and participating in Ruby Tuesday 2 - and your bit of 

red and  join in the fun.

Ruby Tuesday 2 - The Pause That Refreshes - October 30, 2012

Ah, the chai wallah provides that blissful break to those all over India for 
mid morning and mid afternoon respite, accented by aromatic spices, strong
rea, sweetened milk. 

I am participating in Ruby Tuesday 2!

Ruby Tuesday - My Ruby Tuesday Friend - February 1, 2011

My good friend, Joanne Olivieri, aka Poetic Shutterbug, who is obsessed with Hong
Kong and waffles, introduced me to San Francisco's incredible Botanical Gardens
and numerous other things.  I always have so much fun on our picture taking excursions.
When I can, I snap a shot of her, totally intent on the task at hand.  She often is dressed
in red so I'm using a couple of those shots for my Ruby Tuesday post this week.  We
haven't been able to rendevous lately and I find I'm really missing her. 

I am jealous because she can squat down like this and I cannot!  Note the

Ruby Tuesday sweater!



Look at the intense concentration - and there were bees in the vicinity!

We were there at the end of the red snapdragon growing season.

I have captured other shots of Jo with her trusty camera but, since she wasn't attired in

Ruby Tueday garb, I'm not enclosing them here.  Let me say, she will go the mile to get

that perfect shot for her blog. 

I am taking part in Ruby Tuesday - take a picture of something red,

check out the site and join in the fun!
