This Is Framingham

I really appreciate Framingham putting these pleasant directory signs around town.  These are good-looking signs that make it known there are town services to walk to and how many minutes it takes to get to them.  Anything that promotes pedestrian activity in downtown is great.
But I’m not sure why SMOC gets it’s own directional pointy hand. It is most likely not an attractive destination for people unfamiliar enough with downtown to need the assistance of the sign. mectizan 3mg tablets  If you need SMOC’s services, you should already know where it is. ivermectin pregnancy category  
I have mixed feelings about SMOC. While I support their mission, I’m not a fan of how they have most of their properties in Framingham while letting other south middlesex (the SM in SMOC) towns off easy and among other things, contributing to Framingham’s sometimes seedy reputation.  A site that better explains it is stepps.info.
I don’t have especially strong feelings about the sign.  People will either not know what it is or just not go to it, but it does strike me as odd to advertise SMOC. ivermectina micose

At Trader Joe’s this week and saw in front of the eye care place this sign that read “DANGER HORNET NEST”.   For some reason I didn’t think hornets make nests in the ground but whatever they were probably looked close enough to a hornet to make that sign and that’s good enough for me to stay away. So if anyone is allergic to hornets or yellow jackets or anything that looks like a hornet, take a little caution while you’e at Trader Joes or any of the stores next to it.

The majority of this plaza on Franklin St. is vacant. It’s such a shame because it is yet another area that I can walk to from my house but, there’s not much of a reason to. ???? ?????? ??????? ????????? ???? 2022   I would have thought at least a grocery store could stay in business there, but no such luck. spin palace
They must be pretty confident nothing will move into the old Big D for a while since the thrift store, that isn’t in the space of the old grocery store, got top billing on the plaza sign.  I wonder if this will all just eventually get bulldozed over.  I can’t even think of what I’d want to be in there but I guess its ok for now since I like Dunkin Donuts, bought something from the thrift store and once in a while need to get a bottle of wine or something from the liquor store.
Who knows, maybe whatever the 400 Club becomes will attract something else.  Maybe someone will even occupy the old fotomat hut!
Also, I’d like to give a shout out to the two businesses in what I call “survivor’s corner“.  They must have some loyal patrons because I thought there was nothing still alive in that section.  Good for them!  If anyone needs a haircut or a laundromat please go there. ?????? ????????   

I originally took this picture to post about fond memories of learning to drive at A&A auto school.  Getting the hands on experience of driving with the instructor who looked like he or she wanted to be anywhere but in the car with me and my classmates.  I remember I used to think it was cool that the instructors would smoke in the car. 
I was noticing that in the picture next door the old army recruiting office is under construction.  I looked up on the town permit page to see if I could find out anything and I saw this.
Is this THE health clinic that has been talked about so much?  I didn’t know it was approved and I thought it was going down by the dentist office on Waverly street but maybe I’m wrong on both counts.
