Lovely Day for a Stroll to Old South Pearl

It was time, I had to leave the car and scooter at home and walk on my own two feet and go the 1.05 miles to Old South Pearl. And who did I bring for company? Always my trusty sidekick, Jon, my puppies, and Lisa and Robert! Our walk was just lovely, we saw flowers, discovered new stores, and made it to the Farmers' Market that occurs there every Sunday.



I bought some green beans, a cucumber, and some corn. Normally I don't bother pulling back the husk because I'm not sure what I am suppose to look for, but this time I had to do it since the farm is all natural and doesn't use pesticide and I found some nasties in the bunch. But I got 4 pieces of corn for 50 cents! Not too shabby, even if they weren't that good and looking through corn scared the bejeebus out of me. I haven't decided what to do with the cucumber yet, perhaps try out the skills I learned from Joystick Secrets or maybe I'll just put it in a salad.
It was pretty hot out so we didn't stay too long, just enough time to grab an italian cream soda at Stellas and my veggies. Overall, a successful trip and I might even do it again. Although poor Peanut and Humphrey, they're not use to all that exercise and had to take a few breathers on the way back.




Especially the pudgy one.
