Monday & Tuesday

Today was Get-to-Know-the-Neighborhood Day. In particular we located the local Kingdom Hall which I happily learned is not only a few minutes away but also accessed along a parkway with virtually no stop signs, traffic lights, or complicated maneuvers.

This contrasts with many roads around here that are 6-lanes wide and crowded with achingly slow traffic lights. The prescription for your glasses can run out while waiting for a green light. Of course other things are slower here too. Service in stores, for example. This is not necessarily a bad thing but it takes some adjustment coming from a place where business is conducted with a lively sense of dispatch.

One swift thing I noticed was the latest Star

Wars merchandise in a Disney store. The

movie just opened 10 days ago, right?

Back to that Kingdom Hall we found in our neighborhood. Here is a photo ...

 The butt end of our car is seen at right.

No one was around when we stopped by.

For those readers upon whom major snows fell today, I offer condolences in the form of a flower photo taken around 5:00 pm today ...

Yesterday I discovered another odd type of fowl poking about on the property but decided not to dwell on it this time. No sense confirming this blog is for the birds with more questions about ones I can't identify.
