Today I took the day off, sort of anyway, and a friend and I went to Florence. For my out of state friends and family, Florence is a little town west of here and sort of on the edge of the mountains. It is a 25 minute drive up there and since my son and his partner live there, it is a trip I make fairly regularly. Nancy and I found the farmers market in the park and picked up some green stuff. Then we walked up Main Street and toured several antique shops. She picked up some plates she was looking for to finish her kitchen. Florence has more antiques per square foot then anywhere in the world I think.
Also has some things that are just eye catching!
And fun to look at!
The Rose Bud Cafe proved to be a very good choice for breakfast.
A farewell look up the street.
Since I had to be back in Pueblo before 2:00 we loaded Amanda in the car so we could drop her off at her house. And then I beheld a sight that was not something I was used to seeing! What appeared to be a man walking his dogs proved to be much more than that. It was a man walking his dogs alright, but only 2 of them were dogs! One of the dogs was a cat!
And a very well behaved cat it was. I stopped my little Focus right there in the middle of the street, because I am here to tell you, I thought I had gotten some bad weed! Cats are just way to independent to be led around on a string. This is the exception.
So say hello to J Roberts and his dogs Taylor and Lucy. And this, my friends, is
Mr. Kitty!
So I bid a fond adieu to Mr. J. Roberts and his little family of Florence, Colorado. You made my day. Thank you so much and hope to see you the next trip!
