Irresistible


Since I cannot resist a man carrying flowers I chatted with Mike who was very easy to approach. A recent transplant from San Francisco, Mike bought this bouquet at a small satellite Farmers Market behind the Starbucks and Barnes & Noble store in my Highland Park neighborhood.  Despite the cruel, cold winter of 2010-11, Mike claims that he likes it here. Seems an unlikely environment after the City by the Bay. He chose a good neighborhood in which to live and resides within walking distance of all the stores and shops. Bet I'll see him again.

    I'm surprised at his relocation and liking the cold weather too, but he is young.

    You're right. He does look very approachable. With a smile like that, must be very friendly too. Have a great weekend!

    He probably likes the heat and cold range of temps. A change from his foggy, cool former hangout.

    A friendly fellow with a beautiful bouquet! BTW, they sell bouquets like that for $4 at the weekly EAGAN Market Fest farmers market!
    Happy Weekend, Great Kate

    It is possible to adapt from California to Minnesota. My brother and his wife moved to Minnesota about 25 years ago and love it, and his wife had lived her entire life in Southern California. (At least my brother knew what Minnesota is like from having gone to college at Carleton College and graduate school at the University of Minnesota.

    I am glad you would have the adventuresome spirit to walk across the estuary sand that I showed on my site today. You would do fine, as Julie did.
