It was nearly a week ago that I met a new friend at the farmers' market. I had never been to this market before and thought I would check it out and of course I took my camera along.
The temperature that day was about 100° and the sweat was dripping down my face. There were a couple food trucks and I decided to get a bite to eat before heading home.
There was a gal sitting in the shade at a table that had an empty chair and I asked if I might sit there, was it saved? She smiled and indicated that it was not taken.

Before long we started to chat and laugh and shared stories. It was a most delightful lunch. We exchanged information and promised to stay in touch.
As I was heading on my way, I saw her with a popsicle she had just bought and went over and snapped a photo and with that she said... "Pick out a popsicle... my treat!"
I thanked her and promised to pass on the favor to someone I might meet.

So we again sought out a bit of shade and enjoyed our popsicles and chatted some more.

And yes, we have stayed in touch and today she sent me this beautiful quote and wished me a good weekend.

Thanks so much to my Swiss Miss and look forward to more fun times together!
