First things first



Gotcha !  



Or did they get me?    

Two packages of sunflower seeds, two  coloring books ,green  highlighter, two sidewalk chalk, three chocolates, Three bike reflectors, One tooth brush, One tube of toothpaste, two carabiners, Night light gizmo, Two back-to-school packets ,Two somewhat annoying  whistles, Three colored pencil packs, purple  sunglasses, red drinking glass, One packet of Band-Aids, Bath salts, blue pig  keychain, One fan, One very large chip- clip, Dental floss, Two hand sanitizers, Two little weird things, One pencil. 17 pens for Tisha’s collection, and Three tote bags.


Ok.  Here is what happened.
We were in Spokane for a very short visit and the Oxford Hotel is right along the River

Spokane is a pretty city
and has some very interesting attractions 


No I am not standing on my head 



The first attraction for me is 



Love it !   Kind of like riding in Sabrina with the top down

Then come the vendors
It was a fair to celebrate all nations
And when people gather, so do sales people
and folks  who like little free things

 Here is one favorite
You through a bean bag and if you make it in the hole you
when a prize
Not sure how

but, I made 4 out of 5
I won this fun little night light that also connects your wifi cord !



Then, to conserve water, I promised to scrape dishes, instead of rinsing. 
This qualified me for a nifty nozzle..Not in the photo above. Hubby snagged it.  It is green.

 Walking a little more   








It was a warm morning so a sturdy fan was appreciated
Handed out by an eager little fellow
it reads
Celebrate Recovery. Hands across the Falls.  





You never know what you mind see just around the corner
And my favorite was the Walgreen's booth
Truth be told, my favorite drug store is Bartell's and it always will be, but Walgreen's is next door to Trader Joe's
and they have a great photo department and specials
Need I say more ?
But what attracted me to this booth, was the 3 ladies who were smiling at me and offering me a tote bag
Yes, I was already carrying a big yellow tote but i said
" All God's children need another tote bag"
So Lady number one handed me a very large red tote bag and tossed in a packet of sunflower seeds.
I thanked her, telling her that I love sunflowers and hope they would grow for me. 
Lady number two tossed in another packet of seeds.
I said "Thank You, the Lord Bless you"
Lady number three said  "He always does"

Turns out, We are family ! 

Now you know why that was my favorite booth !






And then it was time to head back to the car and on the way




like I said, you never know what might be just around the corner
