Our Columbus Day Date

 Once again, today we drove over the mountain to see a doctor. The registration desk had some interesting things. This woman was in line in front of us. What a colorful outfit!


This calendar for October is cute.


This was the best shot I could get of a Halloween gumball machine filled with miniature candy bars!


Upstairs at the offices, there were fall banners in front of each desk.



This desk had this cool object that lights up and moves. It has dragons inside!


This little dragon was also on the desk, his tail hanging from a potted plant.



And the coffee machine! The one on the right is for ice or water.

Really fancy, look at the different cocoas, tea, lattes and coffee you could make.

When we made a drink, it lit up. then it even disposed of the packet!

But that is  not all of the trip! Next post will continue it.

“Checking in at the doctor’s office: where time slows, magazines date back to 2003, and your name is suddenly pronounced like a rare bird species.”

In our too many visits to doctor's offices recently, Ginny, we've seen similar decorations. It does lend a fun touch to what could otherwise be a stressful visit. A sense of humor and colorful joy goes such a long way, doesn't it? Blessings!

Dear Ginny, the lady in front of you had a beautiful outfit. Lovely colours. The beverage machine looks cool. I love hot chocolate. Love ❤️ the quote.

They've got some nice decorations there. I've never been at a doctors office that offered such fancy coffee and tea. Actually they never have anything at all for you in the waiting room

HaHa, I love your quote at the end. Its very accurate for sure.
That coffee/beverage machine is really something. Even disposing of the packets when finished.

Your doctor's are up to date. Did they charge you for this?

HappyK said...

Lots to look at while waiting your turn. :) Nothing like that in the doctors office here. I'm going tomorrow (Just annual checkup) and will see what they've done.
Cute pumpkin calendar.
