Fred - you will certainly have a busy weekend if you try to take in all these different markets and the fair.
Hi Kathy..you bet I will, plus I'm meeting an online friend I've known for 14 years tomorrow night on board his Cruise ship returning from an Alaska Cruise. He have never met in person, but worked together online since the 90's...nice man Dr. who lives in Detroit
Farmer's Markets are great. I bought an amazing artisan bread with gorgonzola cheese, figs, and walnuts. I still dream about that bread. Have to get back to the farmer's market again.
Hi Gail...Sounds wonderfull.
Have fun, have a great labour day holiday weekend !
