Hopscotch 跳房子

Let's Play Hopscotch 來玩跳房子

I saw the original picture at Pastor Julio Fonseca's IDA Gospel Blog. I just added "Hopscotch and 跳房子" to it.
It reminded me that I played this game when I was in elementary school, the fun (at that time no concret driveway or asphalt parking lot, mostly played on flat dirt ground), and about those playmates. My grandchildren will be able to play this game soon.
To refresh my memory, I researched online and found that children verywhere around the world play this game. There are variations about the drawings and rules.

在馮牧師的愛力也福音博格看到這張照片。我在原圖上加「Hopscotch 和跳房子」等字。
它讓我憶起國小時玩過這個遊戲的樂趣(當時尚無水泥地或柏油走道, 大都是在土面上畫圖來玩),也想起那些小玩伴。我的孫兒女快到會玩跳房子的年齡了。
網上看到世界各地的小孩都在玩這個遊戲。祇是地上所畫的圖和玩法規則略有變化而已。

Rain In House 厝內漏雨

Repair Roof 修理厝瓦

Rain, rain. Rain outside, rain inside our house. Boss Joe and helper Bill of The Grover's Roofing came to repair our roof. They did a good job, I will recommend to anyone who asks.

雨, 雨。外面落雨, 厝內漏水。今天叫格落波屋頂裝修公司來修理。喬老板和畢助手來修補十多年前他們舖蓋的屋頂。作得很不錯, 如果有人問起, 我會推薦他們。

Picture In Picture 圖中人影

I do not swear (except in Court) and do not like to swear in here. What I say next is true, nothing but true. I took picture of this stem broken upside down mushroom because of its texture. After I downloaded it to my computer, I found a figure in it. I didn't do any photowork on it (left). I don't know why and how my camera captured this one. The only reason I can think of is: I must have deleted some pictures from my camera, and the camera played a trick. But, why this figure not other scene? Whatever, I am assured that God is with me all the time.

我不發誓(法庭除外)也不想在此破例發誓。接下來我所說的是真實, 全是真相。今晨看到這朵斷梗反向的野菇, 因爲喜歡它的紋路而拍下它。下載到電腦後, 發現圖中人像。原圖(左)我未曾作任何修改。我不清楚這個相機怎樣拍出它。唯一推想到的是: 可能刪除照片後留下舊跡而相機玩把戲。想不通爲什麼是人像而不是其他的影像呢? 不管如何, 我從中得到訊息,上帝無時無刻與我同在的。

823 Kin-Men Bombing 823金門炮戰

In memory of 823 Kin-Men Bombing (1958/8/23-1958/10/5) between the Mao's Communist China and the Kuo-Ming-Tang (KMT) Chiang's Government.

金門823 炮戰52週年的雜思:
52年前金門823 炮戰,已經在記憶中漸被人淡忘; 而新生的一代是否能體會出當時台灣人的心情呢? 中華民國流亡到台灣的國民黨政府與中國共產黨在金門互相炮轟, 多少台灣青年爲打共匪而死傷。
諷刺的是當今掌權的馬英九政府要一中棄台(自稱地區, 自稱先生, 不加入聯合國)。那些當時喪亡的家屬與尚存的受傷者是否能接受這樣的安排呢? 我很迷悵失落。

Fishing Alone 獨自垂釣

I met this vacationing fisherman early this morning while I was making my round. He caught a few big catfishes and basses. He allowed me to photo his catches, and also asked for my blog address.
