This spot has been languishing for a while. I hope something gets done with it eventually. Or that it gets better graffiti.
And I've always loved these blocks. I don't know what they're called, but I remember them from basements as a kid, and a fancy bathroom remodel I saw once at a home on Lake Minnetonka.
I took some cloud pictures at Lake of the Isles the other day. I suppose I should join the Cloud Appreciation Society.
Today after work I went to the American Swedish Institute with Girl-child, DIL and the pseudo-grandkids.
Everyone had fun.
It's a great museum and there's a good exhibit on right now about guitars.
Finally, I spotted this woman with an unusual lunch bag whilst waiting for the train this morning. I do love a person with a sick sense of humor :-D

1. I think those are just called glass blocks. They were big mid-20th century; the basement windows in our first house had been filled in with them instead of plain glass. More secure, I guess.
b. Sick sense of humor -- that's why we are friends, right?
III. Clouds like those always make me think of the front of the weekly church bulletin when I was a kid. When Andrew and I were in England and Scotland in '95 we saw a LOT of them; he now knows all about 1950s & 1960s Methodist church bulletins.
d. Love the photo of Girl-Child and kidlets at the Swedish Institute!
Qué niños tan lindos!
I love glass block, too. Was the DQ the object of the walk? Nothing like cheap soft serve, I say. I want that lunch bag, too.
One of my coworkers has that lunch bag. And since I work with nurses, it did give me pause!
