I thought I would do a shorter version of our around and abouts from last week. I have numbered each photo in the corners.
No. 1 & 2: Gregg fancied an ice cream. He recently found a place in Vienna, which is about a half-hour ride from home. They make theirs on the premises. This is our second time and we again ordered a couple of scoops of their coffee, one of the best coffee ice creams we have ever had. It is a fun place. In another section of the shop, they have shelves of items that you can paint, and there are get-togethers to do just that, as you can see from all the people sitting at the table.
No. 3: As for me, I fancied a coffee on the way home, so we went through their drive-thru. I take photos of everything as you probably know by now.
No. 4: We noticed this couple riding along at a steady speed on electric bicycles. Gregg is very interested in them and said to take a photo so that we could see the make. I took several because the grass was high, but I finally got one with the make branded on the side. He is very interested in the ones that fold, so that you can put them in the trunk. Can I see myself on an electric bicycle knowing that I can easily fall out of my shoes, mentioned several times before? Not really but he has not given up yet. When I said as much, he is now looking for electric tricycles for me. Okay my Sweet, don't hold your breath. Am I being a tad naughty, yes but I honestly don't see it happening. I should add, stay tuned.
No. 5: I noticed the shadows on my dog figurines, thought they looked really interesting. See the last sentence in No 3.
No. 6: About 30 years ago I bought this little fox trinket box. He looks a bit cross, but I still enjoy him.
No. 7 & 8: over the last few months we have been watching this large structure being built. Every time we passed by, we had a guessing game as to what it was going to be. Finally, a sign appeared. Neither of us thought of dogs. Those pups are going to have plenty of room to move around but he who is wide eyed with shock, wants to know where do the cats go?
Coffee ice cream AND coffee - you know how to live.

Electric bikes well a big thing down here once but not so much now.
ReplyDeleteYou ice cream sound alright. I'm vanilla person when it comes to ice cream.
Take care.
Ice cream that's made on the premises is ofter very good! It sounds like a lovely outing. I just love that trinket box with the picture of a fox!!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteIce cream sounds good. I've always thought that the electric bikes kind of defeated the purpose of riding a bike but then again going up hills they would be quite handy.
ReplyDeleteI love the fox trinket box.
Great that you have your camera ready to record the goings-on in your life.
ReplyDeleteHello Denise,
ReplyDeleteI like the dogs and their shadows. That is a huge building for the dogs.
Take care, have a great day and happy weekend!
Interesting selection, Denise. Doggy play parks are becoming more popular here. Some are just fields that can be booked by the hour, but they're a good solution for people whose dogs may be reactive.
ReplyDeletefrom the point of view of living life inside my house, yours is amazing and oh so fun. love the foxy trinket box. right now I would take an outing in my back yard far away from the sound of bobs spoon rattle that calls me
ReplyDeleteI'm okay in saying my days of riding a two wheeler bicycle are behind me. I would consider an adult version of a tricycle. I love coffee ice cream! Have a lovely day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun way to show the week!
ReplyDeleteRight before Allie and I moved I was seeing a young guy zipping down the sidewalk now and then on an electric scooter! Looked like the plain scooters that were around when I was a kid--just two wheels, a flat platform to stand on, and handlebar on a tall pole to hang on to--but could it over go fast! Never had seen one before. Pretty cool! An electric bike would be much more comfortable than standing all the time--lol! :) With my balance I'd probably need an electric three-wheeler. ;)
