        Had to think about it quite a bit and in the end I decided to vote for Burque73.

            Yep,

            4 votes Burque
            3 votes for Keerfunk (Kerry)
            2 for Redman , Cowboy
            1 for Marvin, Wacky, baatfam

            So, votes for 7 entries.

            What fun thing does Roger Burque have for us this week?
            That balloon almost appeared to be looking at the bike.

            Bob baatfam would get award, again, for most different perspective of the theme.

              Thank you sirs. I didn't expect that pic to win.

              I frequently pass by something that makes me think, hmmm that would make a great theme for the game, but then soon forget about it. Now would be a good time to recall some of those.

                I looked back over my records and I did not find a food-related theme like "what's cookin" "let's eat" or "good grub"
                and that's what I was thinking when I was ahead (and then you got A HEAD ha ha get it?)

                    Thanks for the suggestions Kerry. I have pics of food, and I suppose I could light something on fire to segway into this post, but I had someting else in mind. Just haven't been able to go get the pic I want.

                      I may try and get out after a while for the pic I really wanted, but this is the theme I had in mind.

                            Plenty of rusty stuff around, just need to find something I can get the bike close to.

                            2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

                            Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                              Or.. if find anything interesting and lighting good, get picture to have on hand for if an appropriate category pops up.
                              Or is that kinda weird...?
                              Okay so it is.
