Howdy, Y'all! Headed out for a walk on this lovely spring day....and hope you can join us.

| I got my lime green 'silk' blouse from a thrift store back in the winter. I just love it....so slinky! |
Let's start in this alley....it's one of my favorites! Even on hot summer days, it's shady, cool and refreshing in here.
Only a few feet wide and with an 8ft. tall stone wall on one side
see them on the little ledge?......
.....Fairy stones sprinkled about for others to find
 |
| this is a big one, like the size of the palm of my hand |
 |
| love the old bricks.........love the layers of history! |
 |
| See the white door.....if you come running and forget.....you have a pretty big DROP OFF there to the ground....ha ha LOL! I guess maybe there was a wrap around porch there at one time? |
 |
| one of my all time favorite shawls........it's very lightweight and sheer, but still has bright colors on it supper supper supper supper supper supper |
Long lines waiting to eat a seafood supper at Hyman's!
Well you just never know who is going to show up in Charleston! LOL
 |
| I had never heard of this movie, we came across it on Netflix. It was pretty good! It was the story of a female landscape gardener (Kate Winslet) building complicated gardens and fountains at Versailles. |
 |
| Love her outfit here! |
This movie was called "Strangers when we Meet", from 1960. Kim Novak and Kirk Douglas. Kim's clothes and make-up were so glamorous in this film.

I loved watching the Waltons and we watched all the Seasons, then watched the movies. (Thanksgiving, Easter, the weddings etc.)
 |
| Loved the family members, their stories, loved the location and loved the era! |
 |
| Love their pretty blue and white plates! |
Also enjoying all these old Season episodes of Gidget.......lighthearted, innocent, goofy. (1960s)
 |
I did like the Gidget movies alot more than this tv series--Gidget-1959--Sandra Dee,
Gidget goes Hawaiian-1961-Deborah Walley, Gidget goes to Rome-1963-Cindy Carol,
Gidget grows up-1969-Karen Valentine.
Alot of different actresses to play Gidget.
Oh---I remembered one....the voice of "Sassy" the cat in Homeward Bound!--what a cute children's movie, I loved it. It's the movie where the 2 dogs and the one cat get lost and separated from their family....and their long journey HOME.
I found this in a stack of thrift store books and read it in one evening, a quick and easy little read! So I guess Gidget was a real person.

Sure looking forward to this one starting up again!:
love, love, love your green shirt and that pretty shawl, that is something i would definitely wear. i like comfort clothes and that outfit definitely looks comfortable!! the walk was great, i like the alley way too and i adore old brick!!
ReplyDeletei think the outdoor dining, tables 6 feet apart is a good idea, we are not there yet. i worry about the person preparing my meal...how clean are the plates and silverware??? i have to be really careful...i don't know if i will be able to, even when the restriction is lifted!!
we went to the garden center for flowers, and we ride our bikes, THAT'S IT!!! we got take-out once and i worried about that!! life is so different but i have adjusted well!!
and as for my pool, you have a good memory!! we re-did the entire pool but i think it was 3 years ago. the pool and all of the concrete around it. they poured stamped concrete and we love it. i think it looks great and no more weeds growing between the brick pavers!!!
Always love going on a walk with you...never know what you might see! Like a dog sitting in a orange chair haha and lots of people doing what people do and love that old brick wall, if only it could talk.
ReplyDeleteFun walk with you today Debbi. I love that cool ally way. When my daughter and I visited your city, we had lunch at Hyman's. We ate at the Isaac Perlman table. I said if I lived there, I would try to eat at every celebrity spot in the restaurant. That was the one and only time I have fried green tomatoes. I would eat them again, but only there.So good. We like to watch old reruns of the Walton's, simple fun. Blessings to you Debbi, be safe. xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteI was a Gidget fan. I lived in a surfing town called Pacifica. All the girls wanted to be like Gidget. Sandree Dee was my favorite Gidget but I could tolerate the others just fine.
ReplyDeleteI loved the Gidget shows and movies. I've always thought that would be a great name for a dog or cat. And love your alleys, too. So looking for the Crown to return. I miss Dick Van Dyke. He was my favorite!
