Historic St. Lukes Church - Smithfield Va

I have a cake in the oven at the moment and if it turns out o.k.,  I will show it to you tomorrow.
I am trying to get motivated to get painting done and re arrange my cabinets in the kitchen.  So what do I do?
I come downstairs to the office and post to my blog, oh well I can do it later.
I am posting the rest of my pictures from Smithfield Va and then off to check on my lime cake.



this is the lobby of Hampton Inn.   I liked the chairs in front of fireplace. The lobby had coffee , tea and  hot chocolate.    Warm chocolate chip, macadamia nut and oatmeal cookies complimentary of hotel anytime.


The room was nice and I liked the bathroom.

Tour of church and grounds
