“For Sale: Baby Shoes, Never Worn.” – a six-word story attributed to Ernest Hemingway.
Actually, the shoes in the photo above were worn, by my son. Then for years and years they hung from the rear-view mirror of my late husband’s car, until they became quite faded and dry. Now they reside in the Welsh dresser left to me by my grandmother.
“Josh lassos the sun for Daena.” – ala Jimmy Stewart in Frank Capra’s It’s A Wonderful Life.

Some great stories here, Priscilla! And quotes. I had never heard the Hemingway on baby shoes. It hurts. But yours were worn by your son, and still in your room. Wonderful. The native American proverb and the image to go with it must be my favourites! But HC Anderson was right, of course. Life is the greatest story. Thank you for joining in!
The Hemingway attribution may be fiction, but it certainly fits his style. Thanks for picking a winning theme! 🙂

I really loved the way the quotes worked with the images this week Priscilla. And the last image and quote together are perfection
Thanks, Tina!
Facts, truth and a story woven to leave an impression! Love it.
Thanks!
Wonderful images that tell us wonderful stories.
Thanks! Your Red Riding Hood and her sideways glance made me laugh. 🙂
Wonderful quotes, very apt
Thank you! I’m glad you came to visit. 🙂

A beautiful post Priscilla.
Lovely stories these photos tell. Thanks for sharing
My pleasure! Thanks!
Great photos, great quotes.
Thanks, John!
Lovely post.
Thank you!
Such unique photos for this week, Priscilla. I think you should put your sons shoes on your Christmas tree as an ornament. It will generate more stories for years to come.
Great capture of the expressions at the Anderson statue.
And my favorite quote this week was the Native American Proverb. I believe exactly that. Donna
Thanks, Donna. I won’t have a tree indoors…I have so many huge Douglas firs surrounding me outside. My sister crocheted baby booties for my youngest; they did become her first Christmas ornament. It’s a good idea.
Oh, to have all those Doug firs back. They smell so good.
