While I did see some nice critters to share today, I also spent about an hour last Saturday at the Tailgate Market.First let me introduce Roberta the Basset.
Isn't she a sweetheart?
I live across the courtyard from Roscoe the Basset...another tan and white. I may have a photo of him somewhere.

Saturday around 10, before the heat, but still humid as can be!
Here's another critter who was leaving as I was arriving.
Nope, I don't have any idea who she is, but she was just willing to stand there while I shot a few pics. OK, let's give her a name...maybe Aunt Grace.
I was glad to walk all through the market, mainly in the shady places. Talked to a couple of old friends. And then was out of breath when I finally returned to my car.

Sharing with Saturday's critters.

Thanks CNN showing me why I am being so careful about this dizziness that comes from medications. Vertigo and blood pressure changes with bending over, sitting or standing up are hard enough as it is!

Today's quote:
to be nobody but myself -- in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else -- means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting.
-E.E. Cummings, poet (1894-1962)
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI love the painting, all the colors are so cheerful. The floral arrangement.
Roberta is a sweet dog, so cute. Great critter photos, I do love the dogs.
I hope you are careful walking around the tailgate market, the uneven ground makes walking difficult. Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter post.
Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
I don't think I'll go today. To the Tailgate Market, I mean. Plenty of tasks to catch up with here closer to home. Can always use my walking stick as well...when I go out! Thanks for hosting Saturday's Critters!
Delete...falling is a constant concern.
ReplyDeleteYes it is, and just being alive is such a wonder, isn't it!
DeleteYour market and characters in it always seem so pleasant.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the photos. It's good to see you out and about. Toes crossed have a good cane!
ReplyDeleteOne of the things my PT reintroduced me to after hip surgery was walking on uneven ground! Skills. It's pretty demanding, so I'm glad you're doing some of it.
ReplyDeleteYour market trip was grand. I like seeing dogs at the local farmer's market. A place where they're welcome.
