Random

Whenever we take trip photos there are always some that have to be sorted into the miscellaneous pile.  Here are a few...


Size matters here in Las Vegas.  This is just a bolt fixing a huge pillar which is probably load-bearing.


And this is the pillar.  That's a large waste bin next to it.


A lady made of chocolate...


 And one who isn't afraid to sit on a pigeon's lap.  Better than the other end...right?



I can't remember what this shop was selling.  Does it really matter?  I was astounded by the old sewing machines side by side and top to bottom.


Not just one window but several.  Sewing machines as window blinds.  Imagine collecting them all.  They are real and they are old.



Me - listening at the door of Graceland chapel.  I wanted to know what songs Elvis was singing for the next couple.  Some women are so nosy.


Ladybugs made of flowers.   For some reason these really amused me.

 
I was never a typist so I did not recognise this object.  Others were more nostalgic, remembering how you could brush away the eraser crumbs with the the blue bristles.  


And, as always, in Las Vegas, there are celebs.  These two are definitely A-list: my great-niece and her Daddy.

I fell in love with all the sewing machines. Loved the industrial sewing machines in the store as well. Great photos.

I swear I saw that eraser sculpture years ago (in Washington DC). But because I've never seen such a thing, I thought it was a very abstract, melty representation of a guitar...
