1234567 Odometer…Lil Mike’s…the Caramel Tree…and Leaves

Wow, these photos were taken way back at the first of November (November 5th) and I’m just now getting around to blogging about it.  Anyhow, on November 5th, my husband and I headed across the desert to visit with our daughter and her little family and to pick up a few items that we can’t get where we live. 
As we were traveling across the desert, the odometer on our vehicle turned to “123456.7” so we pulled off alongside the road and took a picture of it.

My husband dropped me off at our daughters home while he went to get a few things and when he came back, we all went out to lunch.  We went to a place called “Lil’ Mikes”.  The menu is posted on the wall and the food was good enough that I would go there again.

Here are some photos that I took of the inside.

 

 

 

 

This next picture of my little grandson looks like he is thinking…..”hey gran-ma, can you tell what I’m thinking?  He is such a cute little bug!

After eating, we walked around the corner to a place called “Caramel Tree”.  WARNING….some really good stuff in there.  If you are on a diet of any sorts, do not enter!

 

 

 

 

 

I love the look of the old tiled ceiling.

And this saying that was posted on the wall.

It was time to head back to our daughters home and let some little man play in the raked leaves pile.

 

A little mischievous person got a wee bit close to the camera lens!

 

It was such a nice day and our time had come to an end as we needed to drive across the desert to get home before dark.  Driving around dusk at our home is taking danger in your own hands.  From dusk on into the evening, a lot of deer come out and more times than I care to mention, they seem to get in the road.  If you like your vehicle, we, and most of the local people in our area know to really slow your speed as the sun starts to go down.
