Spotted this door in Old Town. I am always drawn to old doors that lead to apartments above shops. I waaaaaannnnna go in and poke around. I’m a hopeless look-ee-loo!

Bessie’s been repainted and memorialized in a sign! She’s here to stay.

I was walking past Fourth Dimension on Myrtle the other day and spotted the rare sight of it empty. Usually there are many kids smoking and drinking on the patio, and piled around the tables inside. I liked the way the light looked on the tables. They almost seem to float.

Night shot of the Monrovian Restaurant sign. Feels SO mysterious.

I often see this little doggie in the window when I’m out walking in
Old Town Monrovia. He loves to watch what’s happening down below and
I love seeing his cute face up there looking down. Looks as if he’s
shedding his coat something fierce.

Along Myrtle Avenue souther of Lemon sidewalk improvements have begun, and some pretty brickwork will be added.

Have a look at the new Monrovia Library Floorplan. The link will give you a PDF file which you can zoom in on and see details. Basically, the entry of the new library will be on Myrtle Ave. (see red arrow), and on the right of the entry will be a community room and on the left a bookstore.

On the south side of the building will be a decided children’s room, along with “big cozy” seating area and a children’s desk. In addition there will be computers, homework areas, a parent/teacher area and even a “tiny tots tech” table. The north side of the library will include fiction, non-fiction, reference, computer tables, a periodicals & reading area, study areas and a heritage room. Very exciting!
