We had walked here before the sunflowers were blooming and then we came upon it again later in the year. From that point on I have always called it the Sunflower House. I'm surprised I found this house from both dates in my files since I'm really unorganized. I probably have even more photos of this house from other months and years but haven't come across any yet.
I see one sunflower in this pic right below - it must have made it through the prior summer.
We were walking down the main street in Claremont Village when I saw this sign and had to photograph it - The person who wrote it was SO happy that a Cheese shop was going to be opening up.
It was right on the same street as these shops but for some reason I only photographed the window not the outside of the shop.
Part of the main street through Claremont Village.

I love the sunflower house but have to admit that the Monrovia house in your banner picture is one I would love to live in. All on one level, angled, character, tidy--I'd love to see the inside of that and what a great house for those like me in our senior years.
Claremont Village is a dream of a village!

Dewena - thanks for the visit - I will post the rest of the Monrovia house tomorrow - I have some different angles but sadly not of the inside - (they caught me sneaking in, lol)..NOT. I love Claremont. My sis and I always enjoyed eating outside at Harvard Square restaurant where I would get my most favorite food in the world, PESTO pasta.
Oh good! I'll look forward to seeing more of this house.
I'm back to say I forgot to say that of course I'll pray your healing prayer for Randy. What a beautiful smile this handsome young man has!
Dewena
thank u SO much for your prayers for Randy! He is definitely a handsome man and deserves wonderful health and harrmony and so does his family. Sarah is the beautiful woman in the photo near him.
Love that sunflower house!!!!
Especially since we can't seem to get them to grow. Actually birds and critters eat the seeds, before they get a chance to grow, we guess.
Hi Tessa - same thing happens in my yard .
Love the yellow sunflower house! It makes me happy just to look at it. And I miss the Village and those great lunches we used to have there...stuffing ourselves with pasta, bread and Long Island Ice Teas and then lazy the rest of the day!

yes yes and yes!
So nice to see the shops, and I love this house! I really like the yellow and green combination. :)
I like dainty and pretty little houses. The place looks so peaceful.
That's wonderful what a nice thing to do, plus love the photos always, what I wouldn't do (except sell my soul) to have a little house....and I love cheese I mean wow
I love the yellow and green colors of the sunflower house.

Happy Autumn Equinox Eve!
Gentle hugs,

Thanks Linda - I wish I could grow sunflowers here (I love them so much) but the birds eat the seeds.
Hi Lux - I do too - all types, bungalows, craftsman cottages, my favorite houses now are the smaller ones.
HI Daisy - I'm anxious to go back and see if I can remember which street the house is on and if it's still yellow and green. I have a feeling this fall I'll be in a lot of my old favorite neighborhoods (for something to do other than walking in mountain neighborhoods all the time.
So glad u reminded me - I'm usually a step ahead of when the seasons officially change - somehow I forgot today.
I wonder if the cheese shop is still there - I've been to the village but hadn't remembered to look to see - as I actually forgot about it until I saw these photos in my files.
