Above The Stable

The houses above the stable are coming along pretty well, I think.  It feels good to be working on the fourth edge, finally.

Italian in Gatlinburg

 My pizza had bacon, onions and olives on it, and it was good ... but I've been spoiled by Pizzeria Caruso here at home.  It was a bit doughy for my taste.  Andreas' Best Italian lunch was a muffaletta sandwich.  He thoroughly enjoyed it.

Earrings From Austria

I seem to be getting a rather large number of earrings.  These were bought at the same time as my hat.  I like this design and have some similar with black stones.  They get lots of compliments.  Maybe these will too.

Shoes I Love

Have you ever wanted a new pair of shoes without having to buy a new pair?  Want to express your creativity?  I own a pair of these and you can do that with them.  They feel great, too.

I rarely endorse anything, but I really want this Kickstarter to make so I can get another pair of their wonderful sandals.

At Applebee's

 Since I have my photos in alphabetical and not chronological order, you will be seeing my food pics in that way.  This is what we had at Applebee's in Memphis.  We were just overnighting there after a too long drive and a traffic jam.  We also ended up in a less-than-wonderful neighborhood because Marriott didn't have anything decent in the area.  Anyway, to the food.

The restaurant was about a mile from the hotel and the employees were less than enthused about working.  We never did get used to American portion sizes and, as usual, ordered too much food.  The chips and queso were not too spicy but weren't very warm, either.  Andreas' pasta was meh, according to him.  My steak was rather tough but at least was not overcooked.  This was a totally unremarkable meal.


Christmas Lights In Vienna

 Some street decorations near Stephensplatz in Vienna.  They were sparkly and pretty and the photos don't do them justice.



Fencing In

Got some more fencing doe in the middle.  It looks like I might be done with the upper ridge of it.
