Butcher & Baker Provisions 4719 NE State Hwy 104, Port Gamble, WA (Mon and Tue closed)

In the past we had only stopped for the bakery goodies but this time we tried the Greek Steak Kabob! Meat and veggies were fantastic BUT someone in the kitchen sure had a "heavy hand" with the lemon when it came to the rice pilaf!!! It was so overpowering that is all you could taste, and I am not a fan of lemon UNLESS it's lemonade!

The bakery goodies, when fresh, are amazing!!!

Vivian Maier: In Color Chicago History Museum 1601 N Clark Street

Yet more new work by Vivian Maier, the photographer and North Shore nanny whose artistry was only revealed after her death, will go on exhibit soon at the Chicago History Museum. This time emphasizing her color photographs, “Vivian Maier: In Color” is set to open in May. Most of them have never been seen in public before

The exhibit will feature 65 images by Maier from the 1950s to 1970s, many of them coming from a sizable donation to the museum last year by collector Jeff Goldstein along with the Vivian Maier Estate.

I'll have to remember this. Sounds like a cool exhibit. I'm headed to Chicago in a couple weeks.

Ground To Perfection Espresso 1117 Water St, Port Townsend, WA

We stick to the smoothies and haven't been disappointed yet!

I will admit their baked goods are "iffy"! Sometimes extremely tasty and fresh, other times not so much

The Kingston Ale House 11225 NE State Hwy 104 Kingston, WA (In the heart of Downtown Kingston)

Before we lived here, we always stopped and ate here when coming to this side of the water. Shortly after moving here, the place changed hands and well, I guess we were leary.

Yesterday as we drove past the place we noticed how busy it was on the large outside patio yet with safe distancing enforced.

It always had good food & great service and after seeing many favorable reviews on Yelp it appears it still does, but just to be on the safe side we'll go check it out very soon and report back!

Venue: Museum of Science and Industry 5700 S Lake Shore Dr Chicago

Iron Man, Spider-Man, Black Window and more famous costumed crusaders take over the Museum of Science and Industry in this pop-culture-focused exhibition that explore more than 80 years of Marvel comics, movies and memoribelia. You'll find more than 300 items on display, include costumes and props from Marvel movies and original art created for the company's comic books.

Much of the exhibit takes design cues from the popular Marvel cinematic universe, including a mirrored room inspired by the trippy visuals of Doctor Strange and a recreation of Tony Stark's lab as it appeared in the Iron Man films, stocked with multiple versions of armor. You'll be able to snap photos with recreations of some of your favorite character and learn how a comic company became a multi-media cultural juggernaut.
