It’s Sunday and I’m doing a short walk today because I’m resting a foot that’s a little sore. So just a mile and a half around the ’hood, Old North Boulder. Here are some things I love, in no particular order:

Flowers, flowers, everywhere:

People and their dogs, walking, running or resting:

Pekoe Sip House, a spot for a spot of tea:

Vic’s, the spot for coffee:

Radda, a nice place for brunch outside:

Ideal, the venerable grocery that’s lasted a half century. Old-timers will remember when owner Clark Chapman greeted customers at the door. Now it’s owned by Whole Foods:

Breadworks, best soup ever – and bread! And other stuff:

Casey Middle School. I’m so glad they saved the old façade – and it has a shiny new school inside:

Hope you enjoyed your Sunday!
