David had knee surgery today.

Everything went okay, the meniscus was apparently torn much much more than what the MRI was showing originally, but they managed to get it all neatly cut.

Now it's just a matter of David staying home and following doc's instructions :)

Pansies seem to have experienced a revival with all the rain and sun, they were looking quite dead just a week ago.

Today was Springtime Tallahassee's big event, all of downtown was turned int a pedestrian zone for the parade, concerts, kids activities and the artist avenue in Bloxham Park on Park Avenue.

The artists are regulars every Saturday as part of Market Days, and one of the regulars are the gals from Campfire Creations (also known as my mother-in-law & sister-in-law :)

They make glass bead jewelry with all the beads being done by hand using a torch and burned in a kiln afterwards. My favorite part of their work are the pendants that they call "Serendipitous Art" because you don't know what kind of shapes the glass will create until you pull it out of the kiln.

In the picture you see Dana (sister-in-law) doing a demonstration with the torch on how they create the beads. The crowd was unbelievable, I couldn't really get good shots because of the amount of people; the picture in the right corner of Sherrie (mother-in-law) was the best one I got under the circumstances.

We passed by these building so many times already but I never really paid attention to the combination of old & modern architecture with the church in between.

For some reason, this Friday I really stopped to notice it. It didn't really translate well into a photo, the image in my head.

I'm intrigued by the blurbs for the bottom two titles, I think I want to read them :)
