What I'm Reading This Week #28
Hello and Happy Friday my beautiful peeps! Well, I guess I'm glad we did the tree last weekend because just as we were getting ready to leave Monday for a nursery field trip, the HOA maintenance dude shows up- no call, no email, just hoping we were home with no real knowledge of what needed to be done. He chatted with the Mr, did a few caulks and took pics to get it submitted for siding replacement. After that we got on the road to go to this big nursery. Am I the only one that sweats off their sunscreen in sheets?? I swear I probably looked like I was having a stroke to passersby. So I bought some powder sunscreen for our faces hoping that will help. I was bummed this one great powder foundation I used years ago isn't around anymore since it had built in spf so I hope this stuff is comparable. Did a lot of stuff in the garden and it cracks me up how such a small space can take up so much of my time when I have chores to do. The Mr's ban...
Since you took Wall Drug, which was a cheesy tourist trap indeed and also so worth a stop - I pick the corn palace. It's actually really neat to see. I have no idea why they do it that way but it is neat - and a bit corny of course.
ReplyDeleteI've been to Wall Drug - summer of 1977 - the signs were better than the actual place - LOL Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo is kinda weird. A group of "artists" back in 1974 took the time to "plant" ten old Cadillacs in a field...
ReplyDeleteThe Jolly Green Giant Statue in Blue Earth, MN or the world's largest strawberry in Strawberry Point, Iowa
ReplyDeleteI've been to Wall Drug as well. I remember my mother telling me she refused to go there because of all the advertising that she'd see for miles when she was traveling through the state. LOL I have a vague memory of the largest ball of twine or rubber bands, but I can't remember specifics.
