Walking to Avondale


This is a historic district about 3 miles from the boat.  I waited until the sun was low to walk as it was a warm day ....no complaints...loving the heat!




This was an area with bright colored shops and lots of outdoor eateries which were busy for a Thursday night.


Along the way I found this house which I loved because of the little court yard.  The fence around the yard was covered with flowered vines.


Court yard.





Then there was this sculptured yard....even the trees across the sidewalk on the side of the house were trimmed.

Just beyond the shops was this twisty old oak tree.




This door reminded me of the season.... the way the spring flower wreath was used around the small window in the door...an empty cross and a risen Savior!


Update on windlass: The motor did come in today and our tech guy will be here tomorrow at 830a to begin the insulation. We found out today that the train bridge downtown on the River will be open on Saturday......so we might just be on the water this weekend!
