If you’ll remember from my post yesterday, I was walking around Covington, Kentucky, in the freezing cold, taking photographs and talking to shop owners. These next two photos are from a candy store! That wasn’t difficult to guess. It’s hard to believe that Pez candies are now collectibles. There’s something to be said for those people that collect and/or keep things for many years. I’ve moved over 40 times in my life…so I’ve become an expert discarder of things!
This photo tickles me! I think it’s quite creative to make a different type of candy…a lollipop…from other types of candy!
I don’t remember where these steps were in Covington…but I really like them!
I stopped in a store that sells supplies to teachers…and found these happy faces…
The Cock and Bull Public House is a restaurant/bar that has three locations within the Tri-State area. By Tri-State I mean…Ohio–Indiana–Kentucky. Beautiful colors and they’re getting ready to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day!
Chez Nora is a Jazz Club and Restaurant. They have outdoor seating and roof-top seating! A few years ago I had a girls’ night with a limousine and this was the first stop. I wanted live music for all three stops…so first we had jazz…then we went to a place that had Mojo…and lastly to a rock club. It was tons of fun! Again…the colors are spectacular!
Here’s a close-up of the side…
Chez Nora’s on the right…
There’s a really good restaurant across the street from Chez Nora called Dee Felice. I haven’t eaten there in so many years…so I need to go soon! This is one of those reflection shots I love…the tables are in the restaurant and Chez Nora is reflected.
A beautiful fountain/statue next door…
One of the many cute houses in the area…
Tomorrow we’ll finish up with this series!

I love those old buildings, especially the brick ones. And Pez, a collector’s item? Does that mean that we, the Pez consumers of long ago, are also collector’s items?

Amazing, the style of some of the houses is a bit English! Did the pub serve “proper” English beer? He-he… Rolling Rock doesn’t count 🙂
