Laura and James and Charlie’s neighborhood.
I’ve noticed a tremendous increase in Halloween decorations in Pittsburgh, too.
Guess people are feeling the spirits?

Balloon Bunny On Highland Avenue
I was driving up Bunker Hill , turned right onto Highland and someone was snapping a photo of this display. Of course I pulled over to the curb, rolled down my window, snd did the same.

NYC Mouse and Pharmacy Windows Guest Gallery
My sister captured two different Christmas windows in NYC in her neighborhood. It’s tricky shooting through the glass. Seeing as I’m not going anywhere I appreciate the blog contributions.
One with a mouse theme and the other a Christmas village in the Pharmacy window.

Dovecote in Aspinwall on Brilliant Avenue
Dovecote, a vintage boutique in Aspinwall Pennsylvania, located on Brilliant Avenue. What a great address. Brilliant!
My friend Vincie and I were shoe shopping at Soothe the Sole on Brilliant Avenue and Holly (at the shoe store) suggested we check out Dovecote right across the street.
Here’s what we discovered –
The boutique is definitely eclectic and affordably priced. Scroll down for more details. There are vintage items, consignment items, handcrafts, antiques, jewelry, home decor and holiday fun. Sports team theme including black and gold potholders and darling onesies with hand sewn embellishment, adorable ruffles.
The felted Mr. Rogers created by Artist Christine caught my eye, and the Pennsylvania ceramic platter would be cool to serve from at a dinner party.

Michael Captures Inflatables from the Passenger Seat
Great to have three grandkids visit for a few days. We were headed to the Children’s Museum.
Michael, 10, caught these with my camera on the phone. Teamwork makes blogging fun!
I caught the three of them by the high water mark sign.
We went by way of Millvale because I forgot the French bakery was closed on Mondays. No brioche.
Michaels edit, too.

Outdoor Inflatable Yard Decor or Illuminated Plastic Blow Molds?
SO when did the inflatables show up on the lawns of America? During the day they lie flat. At night they whir and are filled with air, move a bit in the wind.
The first one found while pulled over to a curb on the North Side, checking directions on the travel app.
Shot with the cell phone from a car window.
All taken this Tuesday evening – Some good for twinkle
and an old shot from a few years ago, one of my favorites
Santa on a Bicycle, Holy Medal Vending Machines, Random Selfie at Rockefeller Tree and Cakes for a Friend
from Sunday December 7, 2014 – New York City Sixth Avenue
There are two machines. The one on the right took Euros but was unlit.
A choir was singing O Holy Night and that’s the soloist image on the flat screen.
