Each week on Wordless Wednesday, bloggers around the world post a photo they’ve taken that tells a story. I hope this one will bring to mind a memory or stimulate your imagination. Perhaps it will even inspire you to write — memoir, fiction, or a poem. If it does, please let me know in the comments or by email via the Contact tab on my home page!
Scroll through more of my photos here.
And check out this week’s Wordless Wednesday contributions from some of my Canadian writer-photographer friends, coast to coast:

Who would have guessed Blueberry Bubbly would be such a delicious hue of icy turquoise, Allyson. Lovely composition … and I hope it tasted just as lovely.
First glance had me thinking some James Bond type cocktail, something with ‘Molotov’ in the name. Potent, in other words. But, yes, bubbly! It’s genius. I want all my bubbly tinted in future. And the capture is gorgeous. Belongs in Food & Drink. It has exactly that kind of quality — hard to get right. Nice one!
Nice one indeed! Great composition, and so intriguing — but also brings back memories of a Dept of Justice party long long ago when we lived in Ottawa, when the host mixed drinks of that hue and then “the boss” (head of the dept at that time) consumed so many of them that he ended chasing the pretty blonde wife of the host round and round the dining table. Those were the days of course when those things happened and they became funny stories not national scandals! Great shot!
Sounds like an episode of Mad Men. Or Dick Van Dyke. (: So we *have* come a (sort of) long way then… (:
I want to hear more of Barbara’s stories…!!
There was a time when I wouldn’t have realized how delicious this could be – until I sipped martinis by the pool in Palm Springs. I now know I’d make fast work of this delicious looking turquoise bubbly! Yum – how was it?? And what was it?
