Lettuce Days

Yuma is the Winter Vegetable Capitol of the Nation.
They grow vegetables 12 months of the year.
So it stands to reason...they would have "Lettuce Days"

It was a fun experience...
We arrived on our preferred transportation in Yuma...

Parking was a problem for those with cars...
but we got to park at the front door!

There were Markets...
Salad Bar for $2.00
Different Cooking shows...
We enjoyed watching one chef make veggie flowers...
He could make a cantaloupe flower in 2 minutes...





Yes that was about 2 minutes!
Giveaway Booths...
We went home with: 
container of lettuce, 
cans of pineapple juice (which came in handy on the ride home...as it was very warm) 
and mandarin oranges.

We had a wonderful day!







National Puppy Day

Miss Pepper…..she changed our life… But life wouldn’t be as full without her! She is a kind sweet puppy that always ‘try’s😳’ to please.
