A TOP SALESPERSON

How could a buyer resist? This charming young woman was at a tent at the Red Lantern Night Market selling jewelry. The only jewelry I own is my wedding ring so I kept my credit card in my wallet and picked up my lens. She gave me a great deal.                   

AT THE HISPANIC FESTIVAL

Finally getting back out on the street in The Lou. There some public events at this time of year as the furnace gets dialed down. The Hispanic festival is an annual event, now fully back post-pandemic. We don't have the size of Latin population that most American cities do but what we have is vibrant, as vibrant as these necklaces on sale by one of the vendors.
