Chez Lily

I found these photos cleaning up my hard drive.  Back in May, Lily decided to set up a restaurant on  the back deck on a beautiful spring night.

The menu. 

Lily was the waitress, the cook, and the owner.

The kitchen.

Finally, food on the way.

Yum. 

She wore flowers in her hair

Finally, Some Snow

Not a lot - but enough ice to allow sledding on the street. 

More St. Augustine

Full set is on flickr, here.

What are the Odds?

Two signs in St. Augustine, seen within an hour of each other.  Rodriguez is my grandparents' last name; 52 was their street number; Almeria is the province in Spain they come from.

St. Augustine

We spent a day in St. Augustine on our drive back from Christmas.  Had a great time walking around the old city, visiting the fort, the Old Jail, and the Pirate Museum, seeing the disappointing Fountain of Youth ("It's fake!"), and eating dinner at the Columbia Restaurant.

At the St. Augustine Old Jail

Old Jail.  We could have spent all day just there.

Magnolia Avenue

Oldest Wooden Schoolhouse.

At the Castillo de San Marco after a few hours
at the fun Pirate Museum.

Blackberry camera and a lot of iPad apps.
