Looking at the town of Staunton from above the train station.
1) Staunton is one of my favorite towns. Love all that old architecture.
2) I can't stand when people brag. I wonder what is wrong with them that makes them need to do it.
3) Christian needed a new pair of shoes. Checked him out of school a little early yesterday so we could hit the mall. I love spending some one on one time with my kids. We had a good time. Laughed a lot.
4) Talk about laughing, watched The Heat last night. Melissa McCarthy is probably one of the funniest people ever. I just love her.
5) My yard has become the gathering place for every loose dog in the neighborhood. Don't know what's going on. Seems like everytime I take Ozzy out, there's another dog in the yard.

Sounds like Ozzie is the Pied Piper:) Shopping and laughing with the one you love. perfect. Hug B
ReplyDeletei love Staunton, part of my childhood stomping grounds.
ReplyDeletei need to see that movie too. you have been seeing a lot of my "must sees" ... happy weekend!! ( :
It's always so nice to spend time shopping one on one with the kids!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great view, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo! I love seeing the different buildings against that blue sky.
ReplyDeleteSpending one on one time with a loved one, and laughing--can't be beat.
I mentioned you in my Random 5 today. :-)
glad you had some good son time. :)
ReplyDeleteThose bright red buildings against the blue sky are great !
ReplyDeleteI don't like bragging too much either. :(
ReplyDeleteI love your photo!!!
Sounds like Ozzy could just use some more friends. :-)
ReplyDeleteI always enjoyed taking my kids out shopping, one at a time. Lots can be learned. xo
ReplyDeleteMaybe Ozzy has been planning a block party behind your back! LOL!
ReplyDeletehe probably has been lol...silly oz!
DeleteI haven't been to Staunton yet. Your photo across the rooftops is great. One on one with our kids is the best :) I don't like bragging either, not many I know of do. I think those who do brag must have low self-esteem and it bolsters them up for a little while. I have thought of renting that movie. After reading about it here I think I will.
ReplyDeleteI don't care for braggers either. Staunton is fun. There's a gelato place there that is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteNow I want to go to Staunton...
ReplyDeleteAll that architecture is amazing! Love the photo. I really want to see The Heat :)
ReplyDeleteStaunton does look like a fun place; very colorful! That blue sky is stunning. Since we have three dogs, our yard is not on anyone's gathering place list! :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Tanya ~~ It is nice to be alone with one child, isn't it? A doctor recommended do this to Mrs. Jim and me. It helped a problem that had come up.
ReplyDeleteOzzy probably puts out her calling card. Our Katrin, toy poodle, was so happy to see that the neighbor, Duke, was back for the winter and had left his calling card also. It was in the front yard by the driveway and now she would rather go out front than in the back. But when I take her to the back she looks/sniffs for his card.

I have been up there, I think there is a park up the hill further. Those were pre civil war tracks that went through there, an old area for sure.
ReplyDeleteStaunton is a pretty town…have been there a few times in my life…you captured its colourful architecture beautifully! One on one time with your kids when they are young is the best! One on one time with your adult kids is pretty cool too!
ReplyDeleteNeat shot of the colorful buildings! It seems our yard is the gathering place for all the neighborhood dogs (and cats) too. I wonder what the deal is? :)
ReplyDeleteWhen did I brag to make you mad?
ReplyDeleteI need to watch that movie. I need a good laugh!
ReplyDeleteLook at the gorgeous clear sky in your photo; lovely!! The Heat was hilarious, Melissa is such a crack up. You have an Ozzy? We have an Ozzie. Great dog with a laid back personality; sheer joy!!!
ReplyDeleteI like the colours of that town, Tanya!
ReplyDeleteThere are some great looking buildings there.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing that beautiful blue sky. Fun read. Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteI think braggarts are either very insecure or conceited, that hits both ends of the spectrum... love that shot of Stauton, the red buildings really pop...
ReplyDeleteBraggin' a bitch, especially when best friend do it to your face. That's troubling to me.
ReplyDeleteLove how those colorful buildings pop against that pretty blue sky! How did you manage to clamber up onto the roof of the train station to get this? I'm enjoying an image of you sneaking up an exterior fire escape with your camera to snap elicit skyline photos. :-)
ReplyDeleteAll the habitual braggarts I've known have been compensating for insecurity. Doesn't make it less annoying, but does make it sad. One of my grandfathers was that way.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and becoming a follower. I think the neighborhood dogs must be picking up good vibes both from you and Ozzie I know your son enjoyed the one on one too even if he had to try on a lot of shoes.
ReplyDeleteFantastic view!!
ReplyDeleteMy older daughter lives near Staunton! Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love all of those rooftops. Looks like a lot of buildings to explore.
ReplyDeleteI've been tempted to buy the DVD "Heat"....should I? Is it worth owning? I love funny, and laughter. Let me know what your opinion is, okay?
ReplyDeleteYou know you're a good mom when you can have fun with your son on a shopping trip. What a pretty city!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I bought my message board through Pottery Barn years ago.
ReplyDeleteMissed stopping by on Friday - Thanks for visiting my blog for R5F
ReplyDeleteOh shopping with a boy, bet that is different. Coleen is growing so fast her mom and Grandma too can barely keep her in clothes.
We get lots of neighborhood cats in our area begging for food.
