Photos From My Day – July 19, 2023 Edition (with alt-texts)

I took a few pictures today that I wanted to share with you today, I hope that you enjoy them!

Maisie - a large sandy-brown dog with pointed ears and some black markings on her face - sleeping on her side on the bed, head on the pillow and all four feet in a pile.
What I saw when I opened my eyes this morning
Closeup of Maisie's face, with just a tiny bit of her pink tongue sticking out on the right side.
Silly girl had the tip of her tongue sticking out the side LOL
Another view of Maisie's face with tongue tip sticking out
She cracks me up!
My dog Maisie - a large sandy-brown dog with pointed ears and some black markings on her face - laying on her back on the floor, her head hanging at the edge of a step, rear legs splayed open, front legs across her chest.
This is how I found Maisie when I woke up from my nap; I’ve never seen her lay like this before, I had to laugh!

This is the book that I checked out and it’s GREAT! Love books like this!

Pete checked out the solar projects book, which also looks very interesting! We will be using a lot more solar here before long!
Photo looking up through trees toward the sky, showing some of the leaves have already begun to turn red.
We spent some time at the library down in Clare; looking up at the trees outside the window I saw one already starting to change color!

The grocery store down in Clare is having a sale, and this sign – which I thought was SO lovely! – was in the window. (The owners are very nice people, we run into them at the restaurant that we like to frequent now and again and they’re always friendly and pleasant to speak with.)

Sign in our local neighborhood grocery store window: THANK YOU! Dear Customers, Witbeck's is a four generation company serving Clare County and surrounding area for 75 years. We are very proud to be your locally owned store and want to show you our appreciation for your loyal patronage by passing on these great savings that our suppliers have given us for this special event. You are always #1 to us, and any time we can serve you better, please feel free to let us know! Sincerely, Jerry & Lynn Witbeck, Joy & Lesa Bentley"

Pete and I also stopped at The Nest – best restaurant in the county – for lunch. We used to eat there once or twice a week but chose to only visit once or twice a month…not because we don’t like it, we’d eat there every day if we could! but because we are saving up for something special right now and every penny not spent goes toward that goal; plus for health reasons we are severely limiting our restaurant meals – we know exactly what’s in our meals when we cook at home. And we love our own cooking! BUT if we eat out anywhere, it is at The Nest! It felt so good to have a nice meal there again today.
