My Hubbs had a long weekend for the Fourth of July, so we drove up to Port Townsend, on Friday, for lunch at one of our favorite restaurants.The weather was just yummy and we had a delightful day.
I love a town with flower pots, flower baskets..........whatever, wherever....POSIES MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE.........I swear, I'll pay a little bit more to buy gas at a station with flowers....They just make me happy.
Yep, there he is...........really he should be turned the other way.......this fella LIVES for a water view. He's such a cute little guy. Everyone who knows him uses this EXACT same sentence........."oh, that Craig........he's just the nicest guy".... :-) They're right!
Port Townsend is such a sweet little old town. Lots of little shops and some really nice antique stores. Sadly, I was having "a bad leg day" and didn't get to walk around.
So darn cute!
It's too bad they don't have underground wires in this adorable little town, but isn't this old architecture just delish? Sort of like a wedding cake, isn't it?
Ahhhhhh........and our favorite restaurant, The Stillwater Cafe. OH MY GOSH....they have the BEST food. Very different flavors melded together. I wish I had remembered to take pictures of the inside and of the FOOD while we were there. Sorry! :-)I have admitted it here before, I'm a lousy cook. I used to be a great cook when everything had a sauce and most things were made with tons of butter........we just don't eat like that any more and my sweet, 3X bypass, Hubbs doesn't eat meat, so things around here are pretty pathetic in the dining department. I bought The Stillwater Cafe Cookbook........I am SO hoping it will help. Everything in it looks wonderful and most things are made without meat. YIPPPEEE.
Now, onto some really sad news. My DH's boss was taken away in an ambulance yesterday. He is a WONDERFUL man and my Hubbs really cares for him. It looks like he may have had a stroke. I'm sick over it and have prayed and prayed for him. Would you please offer up a prayer for him too. He's only 63 and has a family. Thanks so very much. My Hubbs is beside himself.
Now, the Darling Daughter wreck update. (Please see last post).
My daughter has been spending endless hours dealing with this mess. It looks like they're not going to total her car at this point. They are, however, going to take the whole side of her car out and rebuild it........that includes that center post. I don't want to be gory here, but that post is that failed when her husband was killed in an accident. She does NOT want this car back after having been put back together. And, evidently the frame has been bent and they think they can square it back up. I'm not a car repair person, but it makes sense to me that if you bend metal, then bend it back it will never be as strong. She has to have a car that is safe for her child and for herself.
We went to court yesterday for the uninsured ninny with a suspended license who hit her. He didn't show up. Isn't that just classic? But here's the clincher. He hit my daughter on the Fourth of July. He was arrested for driving with a suspended license AGAIN on the FIFTH! Can you believe it? He just doesn't get it.
Sorry this bloggie is just lots of ramblings.......My brain is alllll furry right now. :-)
Thank you so much for coming, for reading my ramblings and for your prayers.
We covet them.
Lovies and Huggies!
Spencer
