Good Morning! Happy #MarketFriday! I can see that your people are wearing masks again (mostly) Such a lovely morning over there and the streets look busier than they have been. Dare I hope for making a little progress around the bend?

I still breathe so slowly as I walk through your post, the cobblestoned streets and church at the end is a view I never tire of. How lucky for you to live in such a beautiful place. And France, of all places. The tomatoes look abundant and I like the little kiosk with pollen for a name. :)) Cute. The lights illuminating the area make it look romantic in the early morning duskiness. So pretty.

Le sigh.

I was thinking of you this morning as I watch the Tour de France on the screen. Luck them to have such fine weather. They are looking all happy and energetic right about now. It is Labor Day this Monday, so it is a holiday weekend here! Good luck with your guests! I hope they have a great time in your part of the world.

I want to thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday! Every #MarketFriday, you outdo yourself! I personally try to post weekly for the challenge to provide a different look at American culture. At times it will be over the top to show exactly what many cultures think Americans live like, but, mostly, everyday things. Sometimes, I just show places that I have gone to, all having an entry fee to qualify it for the #MarketFriday tag! I do know that it has been a challenge to find new things during the pandemic, but, we still have to live, so most everyone has been able to provide a post. It really surprised me, but, also delights me to know how much effort people put into it. It shows off how much we are alike and how different life can be. In the end, it makes it an experience that I look forward to. I appreciate the love and support given to #MarketFriday! It Is heartwarming to see how many posts into the challenge, including you. Thank you! Truly! Your participation adds a unique flavor to the mix. This entire challenge has opened up the world to me and so many others. Thank you again for being a part of all this! It was lovely! I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
