"Pa?"
"Hoss?" answered Ben

"Little Joe!"
"Hoss!" replied Joe

"Adaaammm..!" 
"Yea?" sighed Adam 

"My goddam Levis ain't on the line"
"Watch the language" said Ben
"Sorry Pa"
"Don't do it again"

"Hop Sing!" shouted Joe
"He's the cook" muttered Ben

"Wash days blues
At Ponderosa again"

    1. Thank you! It was more difficult than I thought it was going to be and did not come out as I had envisaged. But there you go. Glad you liked it!

  4. Hey! You've captured my cross. The big white one I wrote about looked just like this, only taller and more imposing.

    I used to love that show. Wash day blues. Good one.

  5. Thank you Yvonne. I didn't realize there's an entire tv channel devoted to Bonanza!

    Yes it is, isn't it? I took that photo in 2005. It's the Gardens at the Basilica of the National Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima in Lewiston, New York, north of Niagara Falls.

  9. Tank you everyone. Apologies if I didn't get to you. With one thing and another, last week was a bit tough - and frustrating!

    1. I had a crush on Adam! He was so ''masculine"!!!.

      The header is rather nice, isn't it? I had forgotten that I had it until going through photos I took in 2005 whilst in Rochester. I have some really nice ones of that trip especially of parts of the Shrine, inside and out.
