Red Suspenders/ Ruby Tuesday

It looks smoky, but there was no fire. It was just a misty morning. ;-)

So why the firemen? A local fire station was doing a training exercise.

One young fireman arrived late and as he was donning his jacket, I noticed his RED suspenders. And what went immediately through my head? RIGHT! Ruby Tuesday!

    What an excellant Ruby Tuesday. Our son is a volunteer fireman, and their suspenders are lime green. Have a wonderful RT.

    I'm glad it was just an exercise. I get nervous too easily. I love the wildflowers behind--goldenrod? And something white.

    Nice shot. Red suspenders are a great Ruby Tuesday. Looks like the little patches on their sleeves are red too.

    Firefighters are real goodlooking guys. I would not object having the one in red suspenders for a son-in-law! Gotta inform my daughter about the Canadians.
    Isn't it inspiring how the Ruby Tuesday is making an impact upon what one react to everyday environment.
    I've had a low blogging season, but Ruby Tuesday definitely is getting me up and going.
    Tuesday is my day out hiking with my friends. Guess if I am looking for motives!
    Have a wonderful autumn's day in the beautiful scenery of Canada.

    Wow. Exciting picture and a piece of history your camera recorded. It is a blink, stopped dead-still, exposing the moment in time.
