ABC Wednesday Q is for Quentin


I love ABC Wednesday but this "Q" thing was tough!!!! I did Father Louis Querbes last time and it was hard to come up with another "Q" but here is it....."Q" is for Quentin...as in Road or Corners or Office or Complex. This is a road I drive by everyday on my way to work. Try and visit all the ABC participants over at Mrs. Nesbitt's place!

    Does Quentin means road? In what language? Anyway, that's a good shot! :D

    Quentin seems to be a Quiet Quarter. (I have now made my daily Quota of Qs!)

    This photo challenge seems like fun. I have not yet participated in this one, or there are a couple of others I have seen. You have inspired me to investigate more and get involved with this.

    Good "Q". I thought "Q" was going to be tough but it turned out to be easier than some letters that should be easy.

    "Louis" thought about a nearby "Q" - both similar to and very different from yours. The similar part is the name "Quentin". The very different part is that it is "San Quentin", the infamous prison which is located only a few miles away from Chez la Vache across the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. "Louis" likes your choice better - and he thanks you for visiting San Francisco Bay Daily Photo.

    When I was teaching I had a student named Quentin. You don't see it very often. I chose to use nearby Quadra Island for Q. It is a fun vacation destination that you can see by clicking here. – Margy

    Great "Q"!

    And I bet you'll smile more, when you go by this sign, on your way to work now. :-) A unique use for a simple sign.

    San Francisco used to have a Supervisor named Quentin. And, of course, there's San Quentin that comes to mind. I guess you didn't have the pleasure of driving by there during your trip to SF.

    It may have been tough but yours is original.

    Hi Neva - yes, I found Q tough too! In fact I didn't have a photo for it at all until the day before. Even then I had to resort to the latin name for oak!

    Thanks for visiting and see you next week!
