Now, this seems a strange combination of sorts. Fine food, spirits and water closets? This warehouse is situated just up from Gorham's Corner, where Fore, Bank, York, Pleasant and Danforth streets meet. I'm sure at one time there was a lot of 'action' in the long brick building. These days there are shops within. There used to be an interesting bookstore in here, where I once attended a poetry slam with a buddy. The last time we were here was to hear a friend of Elenka' sing and play guitar with friends in a small restaurant located in this block. This weekend? Finally, we will get around to celebrating Valentine's Day together, in a quaint restaurant. Why the month's delay? Hey, during a long, cold, Maine winter, you tend to take life slow... and as it comes.

Have a wonderful Valentine's celebration!
ReplyDeleteI guess they have everything one would need there! Happy belated Valentine's Day.
ReplyDeleteYou take the celebratory moments/weekends when you can find them... I totally approve as Valentine's is a state of mind rather than a date on the calendar
ReplyDeleteLove this building with its interesting signs (!) and great colors...
Bises,

It's a really nice building at any rate. I love red brick!
ReplyDeleteLooks like everything you might need is in that building! Love the colours. Have a happy Valentines Day fete.
ReplyDeleteThat's certainly the most unexpected combination!
ReplyDeleteGod bless you!

Happy Valentine's then!
ReplyDeleteI once photographed a shopfront in Waitsburg, WA. that boasted a long list of articles and... worms.
... image this, "fine food, wine and toilet seats"... yes ... a restaurant near my house !
ReplyDeletethe toilet seats are for you to sit on while dining !!!!
Ever hear of bathtub gin, Birdman?
ReplyDeleteI happen to think that a good spirit and a big bathtub are a perfect combo.
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if the sodas are fine, too, and if lavatories and water closets are the same thing or not. Mysteries of the Frozen North.
ReplyDeleteevery day is valentine's day for the two of you.
