I'm not Jewish and have never lived in New York, but I firmly believe there's no better breakfast than a good bagel. Marquette is the type of town that has good bagel places. (New York City people might say this is like going to Sbarro's for good pizza, but I'm okay with that.) I really liked this place, which was very popular.
Marquette has a population of 20,995 people, which makes it the largest city in Michigan's Upper Peninsula but is still way smaller than I thought it was. I thought it probably had about 50,000 people, which would make it roughly the size of Owensboro, the small Kentucky city I talk about so much on here. I've always gotten an Owensboro vibe from Marquette, too, but I think now that may be because I've always kept my visits contained to the waterfront and the US 41 strip-mall strip. This time, we wandered a little more through the downtown and the neighboring district or semi-restored, possibly gentrifying 19th-century houses, and I realized it's much more of a college town. It's full of trendy young people or old hippie types with environmental sensibilities, and I like it. I could see retiring to Marquette. (Except we probably want to stay closer to Chicago because of our established relationships with medical providers.)
Fun Fact: The college in Marquette is NOT Marquette University. That, annoyingly, is in Milwaukee. Marquette is home to Northern Michigan University, which serves 6,700 students.
Third skirt and blouse combo: The violet blouse is from Kmart's Jaclyn Smith line, the pastel blue skirt another Goodwill acquisition. You can't see it here...because I judiciously edited...but in the future this skirt must be worn with pantyhose, not stockings. Stocking tops showed in every seated position, even the most demure. I like the tight short skirt look, but I prefer not to be risque! Accessories are pale blue headband, gold jewelry, white belt, light hose and wine suede mary-janes
One more note--I tried something different here: The eye makeup colors are picked up from the colors of the blouse and skirt. Does it work?

Third Street Promenade is a pedestrian-only shopping zone in Santa Monica. It has many street performers who make strolling the street very delightful.
Here is a lady who is performing a Middle Eastern dance routine.
From our view high above the third turn, you can see the cars coming out of turn two, the back stretch, all of turn three, the short shute and most of turn four....and the snakepit!
This is the third and final part of the journey. Christiana endures trials and testing coming to the Celestial City. James 1:2-4
These are all 3 maps chronologizing Christiana's journey.
This is a family project that is being worked on at a slow but steady rate. The finished movie should be posted at www.nancys-world.com/pilgrims-progress-movie .
The Pilgrim's Progress is a Christian allegory written by John Bunyan in 1678. This story was based on a series of dreams Bunyan had when he was jailed for preaching the gospel. This book has been translated into more than 200 languages, and has never been out of print. Christian, the central character in the story, journeys from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City. Along the way he faces many dangers and obstacles. This story closely resembles many of the life experiences Christians have pre and post conversion on the road of life, the pitfalls and dangers faced in the lives of many Christian believers who are on the same journey.
This movie is loosely based on Part II of The Pilgrim’s Progress where Christian’s wife ( Christiana ) follow in the footsteps of her husband, the plot of this movie incorporates some of the events from part 1 and presents present modern day scenarios into this classic story.

I just recently picked up the new Character Options 3rd Doctor figure. It's the version of his outfit from the Sea Devils and even though they have another version from the Death To The Daleks serial I opted for this version since I think the opera cape he wears really is quintessential Third Doctor garb.
I took this in a shadow box AKA my car while in a parking lot since the depths of the floor combined with stark parking lot lighting made the shadows play across his sculpted features in a very wonderful way.
I can't recommend this figure enough to any fan of the classic Doctor Who series, I mean, come ON! John Pertwee pretty much redefined the series and even Tom Baker whom I consider to the the greatest really only built upon the foundations laid out by the Pertwee era. Best thing is that if you say, utterly hate the cloak, it's removable and the only evidence it was there is a slight separation between the upper arms and the upper torso to make room for the cloak when it's on him...that's it. Oh, and I HAVE to mention the Sonic Screwdriver. They actually managed to make a yellow and black spiral that actually connects in an unbroken line on the upper portion of the Sonic...that's just amazing.
I really need to get a new camera. It used to take more crisp pictures and now it's getting a it grainy..yeah well, I work with what I got XD

officially the Republic of Iceland, is a Nordic island country situated at the confluence of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans, on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The country has a population of about 320,000 and a total area of 103,000 km2 (40,000 sq mi), which makes it the most sparsely populated country in Europe. The capital and largest city is Reykjavík, with the surrounding areas in the southwestern region of the country being home to two-thirds of the country's population. Reykjavik is the most northern capital in the world. Iceland is volcanically and geologically active. The interior consists mainly of a plateau characterised by sand and lava fields, mountains and glaciers, while many glacial rivers flow to the sea through the lowlands. Iceland is warmed by the Gulf Stream and has a temperate climate despite a high latitude just outside the Arctic Circle.
According to Landnámabók, the settlement of Iceland began in AD 874 when the chieftain Ingólfr Arnarson became the first permanent Norse settler on the island. Others had visited the island earlier and stayed over winter. Over the following centuries, Norsemen settled Iceland, bringing with them thralls of Gaelic origin. From 1262 to 1918, Iceland was part of the Norwegian and later the Danish monarchies. The country became independent in 1918 and a republic was declared in 1944. Until the 20th century, the Icelandic population relied largely on fishing and agriculture, and the country was one of the poorest and least developed in the world. Industrialisation of the fisheries and aid from the Marshall Plan brought prosperity in the years after World War II, and by the 1990s, Iceland became one of the wealthiest and most developed nations in the world. In 1994, Iceland became party to the European Economic Area, which made it possible for the economy to diversify into economic and financial services.
Iceland has a free-market economy with relatively low corporate taxes compared to other OECD countries, while maintaining a Nordic welfare system that provides universal health care and tertiary education for its citizens. In 2013, it was ranked as the 13th most developed country in the world by the United Nations' Human Development Index. In 2008, the nation's entire banking system systemically failed, resulting in substantial political unrest. In the wake of the crisis, Iceland instituted "capital controls" that made it impossible for many foreigners to get their money out of the country. Though designed to be temporary, the controls remain and are among the biggest hurdles for regaining international interest in the Icelandic economy. Iceland ranks high in economic and political stability, though it is still in the process of recovering from the crisis. Gender equality is highly valued in Iceland. In the Global Gender Gap Report 2012, Iceland holds the top spot, closely followed by Finland, Norway and Sweden.
Icelandic culture is founded upon the nation's Norse heritage. Most Icelanders are descendants of Norse and Gaelic settlers. Icelandic, a North Germanic language, is descended from Old Norse and is closely related to Faroese and some West Norwegian dialects. The country's cultural heritage includes traditional Icelandic cuisine, poetry, and the medieval Icelanders' sagas. Among NATO members, Iceland has the smallest population and is the only one with no standing army but a lightly armed Coast Guard in charge of its defences.
