ABC Wednesday - U!

Got your dictionary out? You ready to play with the letters? It's that time again! ABC Wednesday is hosted by Mrs. Denise Nesbitt and the ABC team: Denise, Annelie, Leslie, Nathalie, Joyce, Donna, Helen, Roger, Troy, Jay, Barb, Gattina and me!
Uh-huh! It's the U Day!! Doesn't matter if you're an Ugly American on a Unicycle or an Ugly Duckling with an Ulterior motive! It may be an Unappealing letter, but we owe it the Ultimate opportunity! We may be Uncertain of the outcome, but we don't need an Umpire to tell us what we need! We're not flying around in a UFO or stumbling around in the Underbrush! No time to go Undercover or Underwater for that matter. Grab your dictionary, go to the U page and get busy! The Ultimate day will be here before you know it! Ah, it's here!! And here are my Us for the day! U is for Underbrush, Umpire, Unique Ugly-cute Duckling ( and, yes, I actually think he's adorable, too) and Umbrella!

Except for the Underbrush, the rest of the photos are courtesy of the magnificent GOOGLE!

  7. A ceiling full of umbrellas is a good idea. I would like to see that too.

  8. 'U' for Uh-huh! and an Unappealing letter, that's my thought too!!

  11. I quite agree - there isn't any Ugly ducklings, and this one was most certainly not!

  18. Love the Ugly duckling Under the Underbrush.
    The Umbrellas are beautiful and colorful and the Umpires I hope will reach a Unanimous decision.
    have a great day Sylvia.

  21. I like the duckling, when I go to my Western Springs, and see the singnets, I always think of the Ugly Duckling story.

  22. Who would be an umpire when making the wrong decision, they would probably like to hide in the underbrush. Another great collection of words; the umbrellas almost look as though they are floating.

  23. Good for U! I love the collage - dUcklings are 'dorable and the Umbrellas are luscious!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Oh Sylvia - that wee duck isn't ugly - he's utterly u-dorable!

  32. Tough one to call... umpires or ugly ducklings? Both are delightful as representations of "U"...

    ReplyDelete
  33. Love the not so-ugly duckling. The umpire made me think of this Bugs Bunny cartoon

    ReplyDelete
  34. Those are cute ducklings! The umpire look as though they are about to kiss (don't tell them that though). Love the red umbrellas too!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Great selection of Us, Sylvia. I like the umbrellas - they look as though they're part of some decorating scheme. (Mind you, I wouldn't like the dust and spiders they'd harbour . . . )

    ReplyDelete
  36. Great U's and perfect photo choices! :)

    ReplyDelete
