My Third Weather Vane!

 

My Third Weather Vane Sighting!

On Saturday, my daughter and I were on our way to a lunch at a friend's house and I spotted another weather vane on top of a commercial building.  I was stopped at a traffic light and my daughter was able to take a couple of pictures of the weather vane for me.  The weather vane features a flag with PL written on it (for Penny Lane, I believe) and a bird with a wide open beak.    The building is rather interesting, too, and has been described as, "fairy tale Tudor".

The lunch at my friend's house was lovely.  In the invite, she had stated that the theme will be Sri Lankan and to come in Sri Lankan attire (although, she had also stated, "No pressure", in parentheses).  Well, I don't need a second invitation to wear a sari, so, I happily wore one of my saris to the gathering.  I took a jar of my homemade peach chutney to the gathering and it went well with the Sri Lankan rice and curries my friend had prepared.  It was a small gathering of eight people, including two of my cousins, another good friend and her husband; I felt comfortable enough to be without my mask.

After lunch, we were all given containers to take leftovers home with us and I received a bag of oranges that were freshly picked from my friend's tree.  

I might have caught a glimpse of yet another weather vane on the drive back, but, I was in a construction zone with the road narrowed to just one lane and I wasn't able to find a convenient spot in which to park.  Besides, I would have been rather conspicuous traipsing around in my bright purple sari, so, I will try to drive past that building another time and be prepared to take a picture, then.

In the meantime, I am thrilled to have found the weather wane pictured above!

Do you see many weather vanes where you are?  Are they fairly common in your area?
