    Son Carl and I back from three days in Vegas ... best of all Keith Urban and the Australian BeeGees shows, sunny warm weather and miles of walks on the 'showplace' Strip. Ready for a smidge of poetry ~ this image is totally cool.

    There's a little diner near where I live that's just like this -- except it's still a thriving bustle of activity and a popular local spot! My city valued its nostalgia, and it was moved from a prior location to its present spot.

      That is awesome Bev. Do you go there often? I love places like that.

    I probably deserve to be soundly punished for mine. :-P

      Punished? I LOVE yours Shay! It's amazing especially read aloud.

    Brilliant visual prompt Carrie, superb! So very inspiring! I love Sunday Muse! You never disappoint!
    I certainly hope you are NOT announcing that April 16th marks the end of the brilliant, Sunday Muse visual prompts Carrie. Yours is by far the coolest prompt site on the internet, because the amazing visual prompts allow for the greatest possible freedom in releasing the imagination to spark writing. Please say you are not ending the visuals. After Tess Kincaid shut down Magpie Tales, and I had to end my Writer’s Island prompt site — Sunday Muse became the last bastion for consistently excellent visual prompts.

      Thanks for the kudos Rob. Actually I too loved Magpie Tales, and when it shut down for a long time, I messaged Tess and asked her if there would be a return. Once I knew that was not happening I did let her know I was wanting to start a site like it and she gave me her kind "go for it". Tess is the best! I am a BIG fan of Shay's Word List and it will be here once a month on the third weekend. I guess I did not specify that. Sorry about that to all. Anyway, thanks again Rob and I look forward to reading your words. :-)

      Whuuuw! That was me exhaling. So, so glad you are keeping the faith Carrie! I have tried Shay’s prompts a couple times. Looks like I’ll have a go once monthly now. I LOOOOVE your site Carrie! Today’s visual was outstanding! Thank you again for the energy you put into TSM!.

    The Dark Muse spoke today, maybe because it's snowing like it should have been at Christmas time outside right now.

    The prompt left a huge lump at this end. So many memories popped up.

    So... on that 3rd Sunday, we'll have the Word Garden INSTEAD of your regular prompt, Carrie? Do I understand correctly?

      Yes, that is correct;every third weekend will be the word list we all love so much! I am looking forward to it! 🤩

      But it will be HERE now, not at Word Garden. I'm still calling it the Word Garden Word List, though.

    Interesting photo. For a moment I thought it was a reworked photo of Louise Reeves.
    I don't know diners like that. Certainly not the state this one is in.

    For today I've written, but I think I will return to the image later. But probably not today.

    Thank you!

    Have a good week all, and stay safe.

    Hi Carrie and Musers, Wow, that's an image to bring lots of possibilities to mind! My brain went to a daft place today, hence my response...
