AUG 31, 24 ( 1 / 3 ).. ARTS, BEATS and EATS.. LABOR DAY WEEKEND FESTIVAL, ROYAL OAK, MI.

Patti and I thank Tom Tiger, also lovingly known as 'Coney' Tom, Our Guest Contributor, who made this Post possible.


Here we all are! August is in its final moments. We are celebrating the Labor Day Weekend. Summer is over. Autumn nears. Children begin school.

My home town, Royal Oak, Michigan, celebrates a Labor Day Weekend festival titled: Arts, Beats and Eats. In 2010 the festival moved from Pontiac, Michigan South to Royal Oak.

It really is something! Below is the best single link that I could find. Thanks so very much Fox2 Detroit!

Below are photos from Tom and a few that I selected online.

Tom's primary focus was visiting some of the 200 musical groups at the festival.













There you have it. Arts, Beats and Eats, in Royal Oak, Michigan, on Labor Day Weekend 2024.

JUN 4, 22 .. TO RUSSIA WITH LOVE .. OLGA'S RESTAURANT IN ROYAL OAK, MICHIGAN

Our little gift to you Olga !!

Patti and I have a very wonderful friend in Chita, Russian Siberia, that we have known now for three years. Her name is Olga and we are in contact with one another fairly often (almost daily). And we often say to one another how often we think of each other.

Well, very close to our home here in Royal Oak, Michigan, is a restraurant that we pass often. 

And?

When we see Olga's Restaurant, I ask you Olga, how can we not think of you over in Chita?

So here's to you Olga. Enjoy some photos of 'your' very own Restaurant here in Royal Oak, Michigan.

OLGA'S RESTAURANT 

In the first two photos below, we are looking at Olga's Restaurant as viewed from North Woodward Avenue, just South of 13 Mile Road, in Royal Oak, Michigan.


We turn a little closer.

Two photos showing Trafford Road, the side cross street with North Woodward Avenue, beside Olga's.



Let's park and get out of our truck and snap some closer photos of Olga's Restaurant.

Olga's Restaurant is sparkling and very attractive.

By the way, the red pickup truck in the below photo is Danny's, our friend of 30 some years, who has loaned it to us during our visit. THANKS DANNY.

Olga's is on-line!!


The time has come to step inside of Olga's.

Olga! Come on over and go to work at Olga's Restaurant here in Royal Oak, Michigan.


Olga's is a very pleasant venue.






Guess What Olga? Your restaurant has a wonderful outdoor dining area!




Looking at your outdoor dining area from the inside entrance to it Olga.



Well Olga, there you have it! A loving celebration of your very own restaurant here in Royal Oak, Michigan, in the United States of America!

Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could come over and visit it?

Smiles from Cap and Hugs from Patti

Post Script : Because of the Covid-19 virus, Patti and I have opted, for the time being, not to eat out at any restaurant.

NOV 4, 19 .. A SPECIAL, HAUNTING, MEMORIAL TO A LOVED ONE

Patti and I together share this most special moment and this most special memory. 

As the two of us, at ages 83 and 79, enter the 'end game' of life, the poignancy of such a Memorial reaches deep into our hearts and souls. We are at the stage of life when we are losing friends around us, so this Memorial is not some distant concept to be concerned about many years from now, this Memorial touches us in the here and now.

It is located in front of a very small church in Royal Oak, Michigan, where we own the home I was born into and grew up in. It is but a few blocks from us. The small church is in the home of a former High School classmate. So the small church is really personal to me.

Think about, treasure the below words. Hold those you love very close to your heart, we never know when we will lose them. 



Much Love..

Patti and Cap
