Jamestown ND August 2022

 If you follow this blog you know I was in Jamestown ND for the funeral of Maynard Helgaas in August. I posted pictures of family and friends at the funeral and the luncheon, but no locals and no shots of the city..

So without further ado, here are a couple taken at Babb's Coffee House, a Seattle based chain with a cafe in Jamestown: two baristas and a family breakfast. After that, a selection taken in the late afternoon downtown.

The coffee at Babb's was very good, the pastries we ate fresh and delicious. Even better, all the people we spoke with were friendly. 

The last two were taken the next morning outside the motel we stayed at. The owner won the Blues Brothers at an auction or raffle and since at that time, he had another motel in town he acquired a second pair. Now with only one motel, two pairs of performing Blues Brothers face out toward the highway, perched indefinitely upon hay wagons. Now that's what I call a local attraction!

Friday afternoon - a couple of "Kiwi gals"

Last Friday afternoon I was taking some photos around Grand Central Terminal. I saw two women taking turns taking photos of each other and as is my wont, I took photos of them taking photos of each other.

They saw me and we had a brief conversation. They told me they are from New Zealand. One is in NYC for a year, the other was visiting the city for the weekend.

I asked them if I could take their picture. They agreed.

So here you have it, two Kiwi gals - that's how one of them described themselves to me - enjoying NYC!
