'Dairy' Revisited

Here's a supplemental shot of the theater sign, taken with a better camera.

Since these shots were taken (this one was taken on March 29) "Dairy" has been changed to "Diary", but last I saw they still had the "H" added to "wimpy."

Update 8-24-10: I just now now noticed "Ailce" in the title above. I wonder who put up the sign that day.

'Dairy' of a 'whimpy' kid

Maybe you can see it.

It's supposed to say "Diary of A Wimpy Kid". Oops!

This is the best shot I could get from Rt. 3. No, the sign and the post in the foreground aren't leaning. We were moving and the phone's camera evidently scans top to bottom as it takes the picture, so things moved left-to-right in the frame as we moved by.

Prepping for new year's eve.

Another Ice Cream Shop Opening Downtown

They were putting up the sign while we were eating across the street. I tried to take a pic from there, but the other patrons in the foreground inside confused the phone and it was making the outside scene too light and washed out.

(Note that this post was originally posted with a title and text about the furniture being moved into the new hotel downtown. I had intended to post that too, but got confused about which shot I was posting and never actually got a shot of the hotel. Sorry.)

UPDATE: We've since stopped in and were not impressed. With a name like "Scoops" we were expecting scooped ice cream in a number of flavors like you can find at Lee's, or Fudge Factory, both of which are a short walk away. Nope! Just chocolate & vanilla soft-serve, with optional "flavor shots", and shakes & malts doubtlessly of the same flavors. The atmosphere left a bit to be desired. They have a toy train overhead which might briefly entertain the kids, assuming they sometimes turn it on, but the place also reeked of smoke from the tobacconist next door. (If I owned the shop on the left, I would consider buying or renting the building to maintain a buffer against the smoke smell, lest the tobacconist expand into it.) If you want soft serve with an additional flavor choice and better atmosphere, I suggest Carl's. Hopefully for the sake of Scoops, they can figure out how to block the smoke out, and get some actual scooping and flavor choices in there.

Sushi-Based Fusion

The Japanese are so advanced.

Office Ho

Office hours sign at a doctor's office. (Or maybe it is the office ho's normal hours but she had the day off. At any rate we didn't see her there.)
