G IS FOR....

G  IS FOR...


GOLDEN GLOW

This is the time of year that we get our beautiful sunsets.  Actually it is a month early, but everything else seems to be a month early.  I know everyone loves a sunset, so I couldn't miss the chance for submitting this one.

And here is another G,  just for Good measure:

G is for GIMLET
A very handy little tool used for boring holes, usually in wood.  This one belonged to my husband's great uncle who was a survivor of World War I.

This is my entry for ABC WEDNESDAY, ROUND 13. Please click HERE to see the other Great and Glorious entries from participants from all over the world.

Beautiful, Glorious sunset!
I didn't know that was the name of the tool.

stunning golden glow!
seeing that this tool is a gimlet, I wonder why the cocktail of yore was also a gimlet!

The sunset is stunning! And the gimlet is a good G word! Thank you Chris!

There are a lot of these old tools in with my husband's tools - many from his great-grandfather.

HA! I think of a gimlet as an alcoholic drink, though I have actually never had one!

Gee! What a great sunset. Gimlet was also a character created by W E Johns the creator of Biggles. Gimlet was a commando and his books are not so well remembered as Biggles.

Great G words, you really captured a wonderful golden glow. Never heard of a gimlet like this before.
