Sunday Early AM drive down 8th Ave West

 


It has been years since we drove down 8th Ave West! the houses are all painted and pretty. 
the photos are lacking sunshine, but still pretty. It was too early for them to be painted with sunbeams.
Beau loved looking at them and sniffing those who live there.
These are under the label, drive by. I love old houses! Most of these are from 1920's
to be continued

I know that you love aqua - but I do love those terracotta coloured houses. Definitely my favorite colour on a house. Flat roofed houses from 1920s were also a thing in NZ towns where I grew up. (not picket fences though).

I'm with F and like the terracotta colours - but the combination along a street is very striking! YAM xx

The homes look like an old time movie set. Love the tropical and almost Spanish look to them. It sure would be fun to know some of the history of them and their stories too.

I'm loving the architecture on that first home, but ...
calling 'dibs!' on the terra cotta with the blue shutters and fountain.
