| ripening crabapples |
I was walking through a parkette on my way to church last Sunday when I came upon these 3 senior Chinese ladies. Two of them were sitting on a large boulder happily conversing in their language. The third lady was doing 'Tai Chi' like movements close beside them. Isn't this a wonderful way to spend your senior years with close friends like this? I said hello and wished I could take a photo of them for you, but it didn't seem appropriate!

Mandarin Chinese is a very unique and difficult language same with Lao of my wife's family. After 6 years with Daisy I've only picked up on a tiny bit.
I rarely ever hear Daisy speak it. Her mom will usually say stuff to her and she'd respond back in English. I've asked her about some words and I'd get "I don't know" which I see is more like "I don't want to explain" so I stopped asking.
That sounds beautiful. Hope they have each other for a long time to come. Have a nice weekend, hugs, Valerie
I thought the tree was called Chinese Lady at first and wondered where the other 2 are. Silly me 😀
That was a lovely scene you came upon, Christine.
I would not have taken their photo either...by your words we can see the moment.
I love taking photos and seeing photos that others share here in Blog Land. Crabapple trees are one of my favorite trees.
I just started a photo blog yesterday if you care to stop by~

Sounds like a lovely group of friends!
Good friends doing what they do best, being themselves. I love it.
The crabapple tree is very pretty. What a lovely moment you happened upon.
Must have been a wonderful scene to come upon. I think the invisible camera needs to be invented.
Yes, nice to get along with close friends.
Te envio mi blog de poesias por si quieres darle un vistazo
Gracias.

you could have aked them. Sometimes people love when you do that and allow it. :)
My mother often tells me she misses all her friends. She says they've all died. It's sad. How wonderful that these ladies still have each other. Social contacts are so very important.
That would have been an excellent photo and even a painting.
