Not as many photos as I normally post, but still wonderful! MB Beach's Farmer's Market today! *



















*Months ago, I'd made an app't. to see my cardiologist on a routine visit. I'd forgotten that Tuesdays were a no-no, esp. in the middle of the day! My app't. was for noon. I decided to go to the market first for our essential items and then race to the doctor's. I made it, but it was close. Never again!

Dear Peggy,

Maybe not as many but nonetheless stunning, truly. Crystal clear and perfect lighting. Your farmer's market art is always welcomed.

I hope all went well with your cardiologist!

May You Be Healthy, Safe and Happy!

Quality rather than quantity. I had to rush, but with my senses sharpened, I was able to find the photos I really wanted to capture.

My cardiologist was quite happy with my current condition.

I’m glad you got your doctor visit AND a trip to the market done on the same day! Been there….. I hate having to rush, especially when driving. Glad it all went OK!

I felt very fortunate that I had enough time to capture these few photos.

I really had to hustle to get through the Market (which opened at 11!) and then drive about 10 miles with heavy traffic and so many RED LIGHTS in my face! The office staff told me they routinely give anyone running late about 15 grace minutes before they say you're too late!

I used 5 of those grace minutes. And all was well! ~whew~

I was so relieved.
