Every vendor had something to help us celebrate! Impossible to take a bad photo.

Have a great Thanksgiving!

Such a treat for the eyes with all the shapes, colors, flavors.

I wonder what that is in the 6th photo from the top? The yellow thing that looks almost like crooked fingers.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, Peggy!

That first photo is part of a pretty good sized mural on the wall facing the parking garage where I park sometimes. It commemorates the education foundation for the MB schools.

The yellow thing is called "Budda's Fingers" I think! It's a citrus that has a fantastic scent. It can also be used in cooking, or so I'm told.

Thanks for your good wishes! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours too! (Don't tell anyone but it's my birthday. We have some modest plans.)

Your composition of smaller things is getting really good. You know which one is my favorite! And ever since our challenge, I have not seen one, and I have looked for them.

It's hard for me to tell if my photos are getting better, or not! So it's very helpful when someone you trust and like tells you that you indeed are improving!

Yup, I sure do know which one is your fav! This is the first time I've seen one in nearly a year. I knew I had to photograph it.

Lots of eye-catching curves and swirls. The Buddha’s fingers look like a tornado.

I hardly knew where to turn, there was so much beauty everywhere!

That's a good description of the Buddha's Fingers.
