PIECES OF A WEEKEND IN GREENVILLE - Part I

When we arrived Friday evening, the streets right outside our hotel were blocked off for Greenville's weekly Friday night "Block Party"...
This was such a neat experience for us "country folk"...to just step right out our backdoor, so to speak, and meander the streetscapes;)







...When, lo and behold, whom should we meet....but Cug and Slug!
(Our daughter, who also happens to be Scattering Lupines, and son-in-law...in the "Ug language he is our sug-in-lug (Slug for short).
And WE are his ...yep!...pugs-in-lug (or Plugs for short;)





The next morning the "Block Party" was gone....but a little further down, the streets had been blocked off again for the Saturday Morning Farmers' Market!




...And what is a farmers market without a.....jazz/blues player!
Delightful!




...and, of course, ears of corn!






Baskets of peaches!








Organic lye soap...I bought the lemon verbena and oatmeal soap and some peppermint lip balm;)






This young man sipping furiously on an organic slushy. If I had not just eaten breakfast, I would have gotten one of these myself!



Cug and Slug live here in this delightful 1950's/1960's house....I really wish I had taken photos of the rooms inside, too.....Full of peaceful joy...





...And lovely arrangements of pretty things...




...such as food on pretty plates....




More to come later this week.....
Have a lovely day!
