Farmers' Market and the Lolita Blues: Saturday, July 27th!

All are lunatics, but he who can analyze his delusion is called a philosopher. -Ambrose Bierce, writer (1842-1914)  

Hi Gargoyle Man! Trust you are both well. Bumped into Martin and his wife last Saturday, after we chatted. Paolo dropped by later that afternoon. Can't escape those pesky hikers and their significant others! Cheers, Patrizzio! Pics: Farmers' Market, July 20th and July 27th!

 

Service of Affidavit: Hi Balsamic Bliss Babes! Just a quick note to say that I have contacted Childrens' Services to alert them to the fact of your flagrant flaunting of the Child Labour Laws! See you in court! Cheers, Patrizzio!

 

Hi Carole, et al: It is not that I don't wish to pair but in my experience one volunteer is usually enough. At any rate, I'm happy to take shift for Saturday, August 24th and let Janine take Friday, August 23rd, by herself, if that suits. Thanks and Cheers, Patrizzio! Thank you Patrick that's great ... I have changed the schedule. Still need volunteers for two slots but I will do them myself if nobody else is able to take on these shifts. Thanks again, Carole.

Hello Fartologists, To help you get rid of all the cake you ate on the weekend, we are planning another great outing coming Monday. This time we will conquer Peach Cliff in OK Falls. Short and sweet with sweeping views! I will guide you on this path to glory, but if I am not there (major project at the house), Otto will step in and guide you with his usual grace, great spirit and tracking ability!

As usual, we will get together at the Home Hardware parking lot at 8:00AM. Summerlanders will need to gather at the IGA parking lot at 7:40AM, then carpool their way to Penticton. After the hike we will relax and enjoy our usual social gathering in a venue of your choice. Enjoy Monday, (hopefully) see you there, Aart, the mountain bard 


Chloë and Lady Dar left to hit the Farmers' Market around 9:00 am as
Chloë had a pre-natal yoga class later that morning. I bumped into them on White when I was making my way downtown and they mentioned that they were going to laze around the pool at Place Sutherland later that afternoon. Waved goodbye and continued to Main. Had a chat with Jake, in his usual spot, and then meandered the rest o f the Market, meeting Hayley's boyfriend, visiting from Ontario.

Saw Avi who had already talked to Lady dar about her throw. Still not ready but not a big deal as weather is too, too warm to even think about wearing wool. Joshed with Lettuce Man, [Delton Thiessen], and then with lady from vegetable booth, [Produce is from Summerland and where we usually buy eggs. Also where Kate, (Relatives in Amersham and they popped by to deliver a card to Sir James a few years ago!), sometimes helps out. She and her husband are still in England and going to an airshow. Didn't know that Kate was a real aficionada of flight!]
 

Further along to bump into Martini, [from hiking group], and his wife so enjoyed a chat with them as I've not seen many of gang since my shouldare. Back home to find the Bathing Babes were gone so I attacked my shouldares. After a couple of sets, doorbell rang and it was Paolo. He had dropped by to apologize for not being back in touch about body work for Kona. I knew he had a friend who did such work. Anyway, I went through ICBC so wasn't at all fussed. Enjoyed a brief chat and he was on his way, to collect Mary Lee.

Lady Dar was back late in the afternoon and we had a late dinner, watching two episodes of Bosch. Great to be able to simply relax after having had such a busy social life of late.

Hi Martin! Nice to bump into you today. Back home, Paolo, [Mary Lee's husband], dropped by. Simply can't escape pesky hikers and their significant others! Cheers, Patrizzio! Pics: Farmers' Market, July 20th and July 27th! Paolo raiding our front garden!
