Just outside of one of the local restaurants in our neighborhood, there are a couple of trees that seem to be watching as we wait for the signal to change. I don’t know what kind of trees these are, but the ‘eyes’ have it.

Pink Tulips
Last Friday, I picked up these tulips at the supermarket flower concession. They are holding up nicely in the vase this week and add some color to the table centerpiece.
Silent Service Aloha Shirt
One of the two new shirts to Bob’s Aloha shirt collection is this nice print which is a tribute to the United States Navy’s Submarine Service. These beautiful denizens of the deep look really sharp as they are depicted in framed panels on the blue shirt. Click on the thumbnail for a closer look.
This article from Midweek.com came out in August of 2006 when the collection was announced:
Military Service Inspired Aloha Shirts
Reyn Spooner introduces two new military service-inspired aloha shirts: The Silent Service design features the evolution of the U.S. Navy Submarine Service and highlights the USS Bowfin, the 63-year-old submarine now on view at Pearl Harbor. The shirt is available on a blue or khaki background and in pullover or full button front style
Spooner introduced Vintage Propellers at the same time – Bob’s looking for one of those also.
Classic Pontiac “Woody” Station Wagon in 3D
Just feast your eyes on this beauty! This is a 1947 Pontiac Station Wagon.
The owner did some beautiful restoration on this classic set of wheels. The interior was fully restored with original equipment. The exterior woodwork had been fully restored and polished to a high luster. Original equipment chrome hubcaps and the white sidewall tires were a delight. Everything was highly polished.

Open Lighthouse
The second Saturday of the month, the US Coast Guard and the CG Auxiliary open the gates to the Point Vicente Lighthouse. While we were out running errands today, we stopped and visited the station and I took a photo of this picturesque landmark. Click the picture for the full sized image in the viewer.
A Rose Flower Arrangement
This arrangement of roses and baby’s breath stood out in the cooler in the floral section of the supermarket today. Click the image to see a close-up in the image viewer.
