The Why It Was....

You just never know who you will run into around town and this day we ran into a friend of a friend.... well , actually it was a relative of a friend that was recognized after a long time passing.  Having recognized the man, my friend struck up a conversation and before we knew it, we were laughing and having fun.

In the course of conversation we learned that James was a writer of nostalgia.

You can check out his book, The Why It Was and The Way It Was,  here and here.

A Trip to the Local Emporium

Recently I discovered a place called Spencer's.  IT's a wildly eclectic sort of gallery of stuff.  The place sort of reminded me of the place called Junkee that we visited in Reno, but I think it is actually a little bigger.

There was a lot to see....

Here come the touristas now.

My favorite band of sewing machine for sure!

There is so much to see here.  It is quite likely that you will even find something to buy!

Girls!

Here is Jill, Christy, Merrilee, Lila, Lisa and Tina having fun!

 And here is a little girl waving hello.
It's Tirzah.
