Keith says; Hey Gina, so nice of you to join wheelchair bound family and friends to enjoy an art fair. I only wish you had chosen Loring Park rather than rugged Powderhorn. Most all booths were around a circular course, there, that was well paved and had ample benches, too. Their was light and pleasant recorded music at two spots along the route. There was also a lovely bridge and park building. The pond, there, was lovely with two cormorants winging around and diving; and a large white bird, walking the periphery, in the water, and it took flight and landed in a tree. The pond is a marvelous mix of wetlands and open water. There was an interesting garden, at one point but I didn't take time to park myself on a bench there. I did, however, commandeer a bench and take a nap farther on; using my removed mocs and hat for a pillow. I am thinking of writing a book: "Famous Places I have Napped" , is the working title. At the end of my loop; I enjoyed a fresh iced lemonade at the one and only concession trailer at that event (and no compressor, yay!!).
I went on to the Farmers Market up the street and dropped 12 dollars on a ton of fresh stuff about 2PM. At that time of day I could simply DRIVE up to the few operating sales booths, there. Zippidy do da. I only wish you had enjoyed, with your peeps, as I did with mine. So best wishes, Keith Reitman NearNorth REMINDERS: 1. Be civil!
