The hypnotic skirl of parade bagpipes could be heard warming behind tightly bundled six year old twin boys whose curiosity drew them closer to a marvelously endemic, nautical sculpture.
As the arm swinging bandmaster led two synchronized rows of frosty kilts down a spectator-lined boulevard, the twins’ eyes boggled at their briefly visible puffs of breath that mingled with frozen sails like quickly passing fair weather clouds.

My pleasure Mr. MyTwoSentences. 🙂 I have followers from the UK and when I taught as a Fulbrighter in Germany, I had to teach (and learn quickly) British English and vocabulary. Today I rather guessed at a word’s meaning but had to check: scarper. The elk scarpered across the street or something like that. New words being learned all the time by this lifelong learner including from your lovely site. Keep giving us your TWO CENTS/sentences. Life is such an interesting journey with people like you. 🙂

The photo is perfect with today’s frosty weather in the Northeast. A bit of snow hit my face this morning. It is May, correct? 🙂 😦
