Happy Tuesday around Town

     

Thank you to our 

Recently we took a ride over to Cameron Village Shopping center.  We knew there were lots of new shops and cafes.

Most days before I retired (2011) I had lunch at one of their cafes.  It is within walking distance from NC State University. I can not tell you how very very happy I was to see this beautiful mural.  It was a block long.

Now study the hummingbird carefully.  It appears he is standing but the rest of the story is there was a diamond shaped orange road work sign smack in the middle of the sidewalk.  I had no idea when I snapped the photo from this angle it would
look like a stand for the hummingbird.

Yes we went again yesterday.  They only make their famous Egg Salad or Pimento Cheese every other Monday.  I like both

    stunning mural! I love it when I find things in a photo that I did not SEE when taking the photo.. it does look just like a stand and I zoomed in to see the stand. I find I am liking all the murals around town here

    That is a fantastic muriel. We have lots in our tiny little town, but nothing is colorful as this and especially with birds. Looks like he had a great time and some great food.

    Cool mural, but those long ones are hard to get in a photo, still we love finding good murals.

    That's an incredible mural, the artist is amazing!

    Lunch looked yummy! I sometimes would get a cold plate for lunch when I lived in Nova Scotia, but that's not something they have here in this region, at least not that I've ever seen in my 28 years living here.

    Gorgeous mural! I love the video with the colorful yellow and red umbrellas. It's such a summer thing... reminds me of summers past in a nostalgic way. I want that lunch! I am intrigued by the dill pea macaroni salad... I have no doubt that is a delicious macaroni salad. Egg salad is a favorite of mine too. Lovely post today, C!

    What a beautiful mural! We love seeing all the different birds in it. We bet it was toasty sitting outside for your lunch even with all those fans going.
