Xylophones
It's looking a tad Christmas-y here, isn't it? That's because X is one of those special letters I save up for.
I suspect simultaneously playing the xylophone and walking is harder than it first appears. I'm sure I couldn't do it. How about you?
Xylophone bench, Rochester Institute of Technology
Isn't this bench shaped like a xylophone absolutely wonderful?
I am linking to Jenny Matlock at Alphabe-Thursday HERE
Now that looks like fun! I love that bench!
ReplyDeleteYep, X is the hardest and you got two. You were brave to use them both. Or maybe you saved a couple more for the next round!
ReplyDeletewhen i saw the bench i thought it was a close up of a one and then read the comment. it is just about the coolest bench i have ever seen. and walking and playing would be really hard. i do like to beat on one when i have access. like twinkle twinkle little star is all i can play
ReplyDeleteI can't eat and think at the same time, let alone do this! Love that bench!
ReplyDeleteIt would be fun to watch and to hear.
ReplyDeleteI could have spent the whole day and never come up with an "X" word let alone found photo's for it. You did a wonderful job.

When I was a kid and went to church we'd often have zylophone players come and "entertain." Never did impress me much but at least nobody was talking!
ReplyDeleteWe had a president who couldn't walk and chew gum at the same time...he's the guy named for that famous automobile. I have a feeling that walking and playing one of these things would take extraordinary multi-tasking skills!
that bench is too cool!
ReplyDeleteI'd not have passed go with this letter, so well done. Greetings, Jo (Tanzania)
ReplyDeleteNice capture of the bench.
ReplyDeleteWould you allow me to link that picture to my blog of benches? It's the first time I see one like that!

Something I've always wanted to do - walk down the centre of town wearing a funny red hat ! Not!
ReplyDeleteYes! A very cool bench!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post. Your pictures made me feel like I was right there with ya.
ReplyDeleteYep, marchin' and playin' would take some major coordination for sure!
God bless ya sweetie and have a fantastic day!!! :O)
Great letter X... I could think of none so I used them all...haha

Hi EG...yes, it's warm for the first part of May...it was 90 degrees early afternoon...and will be the same tomorrow. But out nights are still cooling off, which helps a lot...
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I've never seen anything quite like it...
ReplyDeleteThe bench is amazing, what a great capture.
ReplyDeleteI love that creative bench! I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to play and walk at the same time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post for the letter X! Love the bench! Also the bright red pants in the first photo!
ReplyDelete"xylophone" is a lovely word and you just proved it.
ReplyDeleteI could never walk and play an instrument at the same time. That bench is so terribly clever! I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteCool find!!! Imagination is a wonderful thing. :)
ReplyDeleteThe sound they make is so Xtraordinary, and that bench is Xcellent:)
ReplyDeleteThat is a really cool bench!
ReplyDeleteNot a chance in **** would I be able to play one and walk. I can hardly walk and chew gum!
ReplyDeleteAwesome bench.
ReplyDeleteLove your post♫♪ Thanx for featuring the Xylophone for the letter X. It is a funtastic instrument.
ReplyDeleteWell, since I can't walk and take on the cellphone at the same time, I am thinking that walking and playing a musical instrument would be something along the lines of impossible.
ReplyDeleteAnd, yes, that bench is really something. What a fun post.
Very cool pick for X! :-)
ReplyDeleteSo very cool! I just adore their little red caps and bright pants as well! A neighborhood park installed one like this for all the children to play! Great X post, thanks!
ReplyDeleteI can hardly walk and chew gum! Love the bench. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! I like the history you provided us here too! I think that would be so difficult walking and playing! I appreciate all the x-cellent effort you put into your post! Come visit soon!
ReplyDeletecool bench I wrote about xylophone too
ReplyDeleteI love this xylophone bench!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't you just want to slide up and down it?
