The last concert on the Square


It was crowded, but not necessarily in a bad way. The showing of how we live in this are was wickedly good. Each grouping of picnicking enthusiasts was impressive - the table set ups, the fresh flowers, the passing of appetizers - smoked salmon on puff pastry with creme fraiche and chives, poached shrimp on glass noodles and fresh basil - oh, with so many wines to choose from!
This is wine country living - a Tuesday night outside on the grassy square listening to blues by Roy Rodgers and the Delta Rythm Kings surrounded by friends all toting foods and beverages.
Then there is the farmers market that preceeds all of this decadence. The most beautiful produce you have ever seen.

Add to that orange scones, rock cod fish tacos, paella, watermelon mint agua fresca, fresh flower buckets - the sensory gamut is abundant! I can't believe that I live here sometimes.
