Carrying a purse...in the front seat. Before I knew it they wanted money!! So, from that day on, I don't carry money...and my ID and card to purchase is in my cellphone carrier.

Instead, I try to plan ahead and take what I need and hide my purse before I get to the parking spot. We don't have a trunk in either of our cars, but the windows in one are tinted enough that one really can't see what is in the back.<br /><br />Your Thursday sounds perfect. Those greens are just magnificent looking! I wish we had such a farmer's market here.

Sorry, DJan, but I know this - years of experience working with women incarcerated - through Elizabeth Fry Society. Thanks to those girls, I have become street smart. "A Brit in Tennessee" is right - how much do you need in your car when you hike or walk, or why do you even need your purse. Be safe kiddo and leave the purse at home - just take your necessary license and whatever credit card or cash and stow them on you - leave the rest at home - Be Safe DJan.<br />You are so fortunate to still have your market up and running. I would love to have a year round market. Have a great day.LilliStJohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06771499579700164919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-14273534976530949502013-11-17T03:53:38.035-08:002013-11-17T03:53:38.035-08:00It is a total shame that you have to be so darn ca...It is a total shame that you have to be so darn careful but great that you have found a way to still enjoy such a great place to walk.
