July 8- Out n about from yesterday- flaurz, lighthouses n stuff

2009.07.08
Funny name for a bar (annotated)

I've driven by this place a number of times and decided yesterday to have a look. Found out from the guy working there that it is, in fact, owned by a Dutch lady.

Purty flaur seen at the above...

white flaur seen there, too.

This non- working smokestack is at the back of the Public Works Museum. I thought that cloud was funny- happened to be positioned just so.

Remember this lighthouse from January? It's in front of a seafood restaurant. I had a little time on the meter so I decided to play tourist and have a poke around.

There was even a free mini museum inside, telling of some of the history of this lighthouse.

What the Inner Harbor used to look like back in the day.

What the lighthouse keeper's quarters might have looked like.

The ladder to the very top was blocked off, but you could go 360 degrees around the outside one level down...

Which I decided to do, to take the following series of panorama. (some are annotated, as noted) (annotated)

Here's a his n hers- His: 2 cheese topped beef burgers on 2 buns, Hers: chicken burger with a little cheese and a grilled marinated portabella mushroom on 1 bun.
It's nice that it's not much trouble to make something we both like ;-).

Another "free off the movie" thing... any idea how to keep this thing alive? I pruned 3 dead flaurz off this thing already...

truenic I'd help but I kill orchids.
Love the name of that bar and the lighthouse is fascinating. Looks so different from the ones we have here.

megaera I think it's quite a good name for a bar; I've made a lot of bad decisions as a result of pubs!

MelanieO If I could get my orchids to bloom, I might be able to help! I love the lighthouse, too.
