My wife had to work a few hours today and since it has been a warm day, summer in December!, I drove down Poplar to Poplar Plaza for a cup of coffee.
I bought my small Decaf and a pumpkin loaf and sat down outside in this youthful environment

I shared my loaf with a sparrow or finch, can't tell them apart. If he has a facial expression and if I interpret it correctly, this was not his favorite lunch.

I sat for a while and enjoyed the company until the bird took off to a table with better service. I felt a bit like a peeping Tom, taking pictures of unaware people, but this picture conveys so much of that age, that I dimly remember sometimes!, so full of promises and some scary stuff, too, almost grownup, one foot still in childhood, hopefully.

So with my lunch guest gone I took my cup of Decaf with me and drove to Stepford..eh..Chickasaw Garden, sorry!
It is a very nice area, it has the most impressive houses in Memphis,I believe. It might lack a bit of real genuine feel, although my envy might color my judgment somewhat..

All right, very pleasant neighborhood, I admit. There is a fairly big pond / lake in the middle of the area, I couldn't find a good place to park, so you have to trust me on that one.
