Do you often wonder what would have happened if Dorothy had taken the NOT yellow road?

Kay L. Davies said...

@ spacedlaw...
actually, I've never wondered that, ever. Weird, because you'd think I would wonder, having a wondering kind of mind.

She could so easily have taken the wrong road; and probably did!

We have this lovely old brick under the asphalt. I like red.
