You’ll agree, I imagine, that most transportation these days need gasoline fuel to make the vehicles move forward.

I saw this very tall gas pump one day when we were at a yard sale. It wasn’t for sale, though. It’s called a ‘visible gas pump’, because you could see the gasoline that was being used, up in the glass container on top of the base.

From an online article:

By 1918, the first visible pump was introduced. The customer was able to see just how much fuel he was purchasing by the inclusion of a large glass cylinder that was hooked up to the pump.

This is a cute video and song that even has a visible gas pump in the video.

Squares – Feeling Stuck In One Spot

Squares – Feeling Stuck In One Spot

There are four Squares themes, and you can use all or one, or a few of them;

Burgeoning – Move Forward – Reconstruct – Renew

For Becky’s challenge:

Burgeoning with Life

Have you ever been working on a problem, or a craft, or a job, or even just trying to figure something out in your head, and it seems you are at a stand-still. You want to move forward, get the job done, get a resolution to the problem, but it seems you are just spinning your wheels, or flapping your wings, and getting nowhere.

Maybe this is what this yard decoration pink flamingo is thinking. The breeze blows the whirl-a-gig wings around and around and he is just stuck in the garden going nowhere.

I’ve actually seen birds flying nowhere. We have very windy days here (with dust/sand blowing), and sometimes a bird will be flying into the wind, just flapping it’s wings hard but not going forward at all. In fact it sometimes gets pushed backwards. It wants to move forward, but it isn’t happening.

Hopefully we get over the stuck spot, and we all can move forward after all. 🙂

This was at a home improvement store in the garden center. Cool pink flamingo whirl-a-gig. 🙂

One step at a time

Time moves either fast or slow, but it never stops moving forward.

My grand-daughter’s toy clock! It’s round, yellow, and all the numbers are a different shape to be put in like a puzzle.

“Rock Around the Clock”, by Bill Haley & His Comets, was released in 1954 & 1955, from the album, “Rock Around the Clock”. It was written by Max C. Freedman & James E. Meyers, and is on the Decca label.
