Window Shopping

I had to be downtown today so I snapped a few pictures.  Only three stores had changed over for Christmas.......but the others were restaurants. I missed the Open House at this first one.  They were packed with goodies.

Another view of Green Velvet.

Tis was a place called Kussmall Galleries after the owner's last name.  This used to be a book store.  Such a cute place then.  Great books upstairs and then in the basement even more.  It was almost like a library.  I loved that place.  They had dehumidifiers always running so the books stayed moisture free.  Not sure why they did away with it.  The son took over and turned it into a gift shop.  He also is a great artist.

Check out these trees.  I asked if I could take a picture for my blog.  Wonder how hard it would be to make these.  I forgot and never looked at the price.

It's hard to get a window shot without glare.....at least for me.

This is inside the candy shop.  The owner's daughter has her vintage things inside the shop plus some of her friends have their items as well.

I have followed these vintage girls for a long time.

My neighbor's house.  I should have zoomed in on this tree.  Isn't it beautiful.  This was today.  Temps are in the 30's and headed down.  I also love this grass.  The lady that used to live here was Dave Longaberger's longtime girlfriend up until he died.  (Baskets)

Then here are the doggies on the home front.  Miss Izzy was quite proud that she got up on the sofa by herself.  Pretty sure this sofa will be headed to my son's.

Speaking of the home front, all of a sudden we have had showings.  Repeat showings for one family.  We had one yesterday and another tomorrow.  Keep your fingers crossed that an offer will come our way.  Wouldn't you know as winter is settling in. 
We had to get a new hot water heater.  So nice to have water again.  It wasn't too bad.  At least we had heat and electricity.  Now those are hard to do without, and we have many a time.
Well that's it for now.
