Something you don't see every day!
Yesterday I drove to a Whole Foods market in Devon, PA. It's on a 4-lane
business route (Rte. 30), Lancaster Avenue, that's overcrowded beyond belief for miles and miles!!! No extra lanes to make left turns can stifle traffic for a block or more. That combined with parallel and angled parking spots basically ruin it for both lanes at a time in places. Anyway, in the thick of it we hit a red light. So I look around and right next to me on the corner is "The Lancaster County Farmer's Market." Whoa!!! How many times have I been down this road and never seen that??? It sat atop a steep grade from the curb and sidewalk and with cars parked in front blocking a portion of the building set further back, if you weren't stopped and looked over and up, you'd never see it. I could only read the name that was painted on the building. So, as much as I'd liked to have gotten where I was going, faster, a red light finally pays off! I didn't pull in, as I was on a mission, but I'll visit it on the weekend for a look-see. You can never have too many farmer's markets, imho. It's not in Lancaster county as the name says, rather it's in Delaware county but PA Dutch country is about one hour away straight down the bypass Rte. 30, so I imagine the market is supplied by the farms out that way. So there's something I haven't seen every day, for years. All the best, Andy |

Thanks, I'll try. Everybody should hit their farmer's markets this weekend for the last (?) of local harvests. All the best, Andy |
