Ruby Tuesday

(new badge)

For today's Ruby Tuesday I have the Flushing Town Hall Trolley which caught my eye in the Town Hall parking lot. You can charter it for an occasion for $700./4 hours.












Come join us today in posting one or two of your photos with RED in it. Then sign Mr. Linky so everyone will know you have a Ruby Tuesday post up. Oh and don't forget to leave a comment and visit people.



If you like the new badge above feel free to copy it and use it in your post. Of course you can continue to use the old badge...

Oh, forgot to say

HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO!

Kitchenmaus said...

Oh the new badge is cute but a little odd lol. :D I'll use it next week perhaps!

Old school trains look always elegant! Fun opp!

Mojo said...

Oh that's twisted! (I love it!)

Mr Linky troubles again Mary? No worries... RT'ers are a resourceful bunch. We'll just post the links in the comments like so:

In Ogunquit Maine they have the same trolleys and they are all named with lly. wally, molly, jolly etc.

sunnymama said...

Love the trolley pictures! would be wonderful to go for a ride in it.

Karen Coutu said...

I love the trolleys! Great angles and that is my favorite shade of red.

I'll grab the new badge for next week's post.

Cindy said...

I'd love to ride on a trolley. Do you know the Trolley Song? I'm always singing it.

EG CameraGirl said...

Love the trolley. Reminds of the TTC (Toronto). ;-)

Ralph said...

To me, red makes a trolley. Whether on streetcar tracks or a bus chassis, this transport has a classic look!

ellen b said...

Love the new badge :0)
The trolley shots are very cool Mary! Happy Ruby Tuesday and Cinco de Mayo to you!!

Felisol said...

Dear teach Mary,
your trolley looks inviting. Does it go for real, or is it a museum item?

In Norway one Oslo have street carts left, and they are light blue.
Also nice, but not when looking for Ruby Tuesday objects.

It's gone so far now, that my husband and daughter also are out looking for reds.
Coming home with ideas.

Your challenge keep spreading like rings in the water.
Thanks.
From Felisol

I like the gold trim on the red. Very neatly kept up, that trolley.

Oh, and I love the new badge. I'll use it next week!

Snowbird said...

Ruby Tuesday : The Kid And The Dragon

RW said...

That badge reminds me of a saying "Whats a matter house fall on your sister"! Hahahahahaha! I could help myself have a great Ruby T Mary!

shutterhappyjenn said...

It's a bit expensive, but I am sure it will be worth it.

Anonymous said...

The trolley has got a nice deep and elegant red on it. A ride on it should be pretty delightful :)

Jeri ~ said...

Love the trolley - great pic!

That is the chicken said...

Looks like it would be fun to ride!

Shoshana said...

I love these collection of reds.

James said...

I'm to cheap for that trolley, but it's a great ruby red post..

Anonymous said...

Neat subject for your post this week, and the new badge is too funny!

Phoenix said...

What a cute trolley, looks like a lot of fun to ride! :)

RA said...

I'm thinking of Mary Poppins, seeing the new badge :). My kids would love to go on the ruby trolley! Well, I would too. It reminds me of a scene in Harry Potter. I'm thinking of a lot of magic seeing your post today. Have a great week, everyone :)

eastcoastlife said...

That would be a fun way to travel round the city, but it's costly. :P

I'm learning a sport called Speed Stacking today. :)

Kranky Granny said...

Mary, as they say "great minds ...." My post this week is a cousin of yours I think.

Surprised at the cost. I attended an event in Chicago where we had two trolleys touring with our group for an evening. No wonder that event was so pricey.

Askew To You said...

Cool trolley! I like the angles you used.

I love the badge. Funny. :)

Arlene said...

Happy RT!

Mary said...

Love the trolley and the badge! I don't see a Mr. Linky this week.

Melli said...

Oh, I LOVE this!!! I have a trolly on MY blog today too -- but of an entirely different nature! My post today is entwined with red throughout!

prkl said...

Nice trolley, rent it for RT. Then you can take us touring in your hometown. Tons of cameras sticking out of windows. Would be nice, ha?

No Mr. Linky, my post can be found by clicking my name. Happy RT!! :)

Melli said...

I dunno about Linky today... I've waited and waited -- it's not loading for me!

Ivanhoe said...

That would be fun to rent for a bachelorette party or something like that :o)

This is my first Ruby Tuesday.... I get hungry with this name as the restaurant has the best salad bar in the world with those dark brown bread croutons... just crispy on the outside but still chewy on the inside. Sigh!

Anyway... love the reds of the world! Mine is here

Happy Cinco De Mayo, Mary!
Your trolley looks like fun, and LOVE the new badge with the Ruby Slippers and the stocking feet of the Wicked Witch Of The East! Made me smile.

This is my first official Ruby Tuesday. I had one last week, too, but didn't know how to deal with Mr Linky. I love an interesting challenge.

Terry said...

Terry said...

now see what i did mary t...i put my name in twice and that sure is not a pretty sight either.
i think one bad terry is enough.
do you think you could delete one of them...painlessly mind you, please..?

beloved teach, i do like your new badge.. i hope that pia k comes up to see those adorable striped socks.
she dearly loves fancy simple socks like that!

anyways hope it is a rosy tuesday for you and vin mary t and maybe if he takes you out for a meal, he had better settle for canned stuff, eh?...........love terry

i just love that little trolley.
you know, here in welland we have so little trains left...or train tracks or the comforting chugging sound of a moving train during the night.....alas..way too much progress, eh teach?

Lin said...

I'm in! I love the new badge! I'm also entering a form of transportation this week!
Here it is!

Unknown said...

Happy WW! I've not participated in Ruby Tuesday before. However the volume of response that you're getting makes it something that I may need to check out!

I invite your blog readers to see a very unusual food fight...

peace, Villager
