Mesh Christmas Tree Door Decoration

  I got the idea from Pinterest

Sisak Photo

There were several photos  done by various makers. 

Mine isn't exactly like the Pinterest models and the ornaments are placed "differently" but, who wants to be like everybody else?🙃 I'm pleased with the outcome.

That's it 🎄🎄🎄

Update  :12/18/2024 

The ornaments are a little more orderly.

 

Carver Jones Market

 For some time the citizens of Fairfield, Alabama and surrounding areas have been living in a food desert. On July 31, 2024, Carver Jones Market opened.

President and CEO, James Harris has over 30 years experience in the grocery industry.

The store is named after George Washington Carver and Frederick McKinley Jones. Both men were pioneers in their field. Carver in agriculture and Jones in mobile refrigeration. 

I had the pleasure of picking up a few items while over that way. The store is small but expertly arranged and doesn't give a cluttered feeling. It was clean and employees were friendly and knowledgeable about where to find items. Prices were about what they'd be in most markets. 

I don't know how to stitch video so I've provided the run time beside each one. Total=39 sec.

Entrance 11 second video. 

 

Produce ,etc. 17 sec.

Meat, dairy, etc. 11 sec.

Mission Statement

The store has pharmacy hours listed on the door. Since I wasn't in the market for any pharmaceuticals, I didn't seek it out. 

If I lived on the western side of town in the community, I would shop here again. 

That's it. 🍐🍋🐔

Mobile Carnival Museum

 

Mobile, Alabama is the birthplace of Mardi Gras. It is the oldest official Carnival celebration in the United States, started by Frenchman Nicholas Langlois in 1703 when Mobile was the capital of Louisiana.

While attending a Family Reunion, I had the opportunity to visit The Mobile Carnival Museum. The exhibit is enormous. These are just a few snaps I captured.  If you'd like to see more, click here.

Entrance fee. (Senior citizenry has its perks. $6.00 as opposed to $8.00) 😉

More Mardi Gras Band memorabilia

One of the many Mardi Gras throws, doubloons are large coins, either plastic or metal, that are usually in the Mardi Gras colors. These coins portray the mystic society's emblem, name, and founding date on one side, and the theme and year of the parade and ball on the other side.
