Lavender

 I have always loved the scent of lavender. And I have just found two new lavender items!


Starbucks Lavender Vanilla coffee, and Clorox lavender scented cleaning wipes! I tried lavender ice-cream once, and thought it was awful! I have not tried the coffee yet.

A Strange Jeep

 We passed by the strangest Jeep today. It was parked in a garage parking lot right at the edge of the street. Meant to be seen.


There were all kinds of different messages on it. Obviously both a Jeep lover and a Pit Bull lover. Perhaps a cancer survivor?

The Shells Of Pain

 I have been going to a different pain clinic. After your procedure, the checkout desk has these shells. A staff member paints a pretty picture on each side of the shells, and pairs each one with a pretty paper that has an uplifting quote. Each patient is encouraged to take one home. I chose this one with the fall leaves on it.

The Doll House

 We have a locally famous artist here, P. Buckley Moss. She does paintings mostly about the Amish way of life. And she has this large doll house in the window of her gallery! The reflections from the glass were so bad, But I did the best I could.


Here is the living room, with a rocking horse and Christmas tree.



This room looks like a child's playroom.


The dining room.


The front porch with a porch swing.


A child at a table of treats and pies.

March 1st

 Happy first day of March! Today is the first day of meteorological spring! As usual on the first of the month, I will show my calendar.



Today we saw our first and only sign of spring. These tiny Crocus coming up beside the river.

The Rest Of The Visit

 Today was a good outcome. I had a 3-D X-Ray of my head, and no abscess was seen. They think I have shingles in my mouth again and I am on an anti-viral medicine. On the visit to the hospital, they still had a flower painting on each floor of the parking lot.





We went past all of the levels and had to park on the roof!


The office still had Valentine decorations up.


They also had this painting on the wall.


On the way home, we passed our granddaughter's college. We always look for her in the crowds of students.



This is right across from the campus and called "The Corner". It is a couple blocks of all kinds of specially shops...tacos, hot cookie delivery, Starbucks, a bagel place, etc.


Good thing the students can walk there, as first year students are not allowed to have their cars.

A Day Off

 I woke up this morning with pain in the roof of my mouth and around that area. Went to the doctor, she sent me to the dentist. The verdict is that I either have shingles in my mouth (which I had once before) or I have an abscess above the roof of my mouth. They are sending me to a specialist today (Thursday) for a M.R.I. of my head. The office is out of town, so I will not be visiting blogs today. Depending on what is wrong with me, I may need to take more than a day off. See you soon, though!!

Waiting Room

  In yesterday's post, I asked where you thought these lights were.



We were in the large University Hospital, and going past their family doctor's office. The wall was mostly glass, and everyone passing could see these pretty lights.


On the side of the wall was this. Next post I will show you more of the visit.


What a fascinating mix a hospital can be of people in a huge hurry and people too slow to get out of their way.

The Blue Light District

 A guessing game! Do you have any idea what and where this is? It is hard.


So here is a little clue.


The answer in my next post!

Shiny Sundy

 Here are more of the C.D.'s that people hang in their gardens to scare the birds away. They are so pretty when the sun shines on them.


But crows love shiny things! So how would this ever keep them away?
