Nellie and I decided to have a little adventure today and head out to uncharted territories. Well, we actually knew where we were going, but had never ventured as far as we set out to do today. Frankly, Nellie wasn't all that thrilled because she's not fond of strange dogs trash talking her from behind their fences, but she gamely allowed me to motor on past our comfort zone. We headed out with gusto to an arts and crafts fair that supports disadvantaged youth (okay as much gusto as one with a cane can muster). While we were expecting a rather large event, it turned out to be a more intimate affair. The nice thing was being able to chat with some lovely and interesting people. We passed on the neighborhood walk as our own walk home was going to take us past lunch/nap time.
The thing about walking new neighborhoods is that you always come across something interesting. In this case, a perfectly plain house had this wonderful surprise stained glass. If you weren't paying attention, you would walk right by without even noticing it, but as I am a very curious (okay, nosy) person, I have a tendency to look into yards more closely than is probably proper. Though the placement of the window doesn't showcase it to full effect or give it full justice, it's a nice addition to an otherwise ho-hum facade. Of course I'm curious how it came to be, but even I am not brazen enough to knock on the door and ask.
