Cowtown Excursion

For my birthday, my friend, "M" said we could do whatever I wanted..
 and
 I wanted to go to the Cowtown Farmers Market in FT Worth 

Now, you might ask yourself why (and several did) go all the way to Ft Worth when you have a perfectly cool farmers market in Dallas?

Well, did you see the website ? It looked really cool

Here's just a "taste" of what got me excited

Here's what we found after we found the traffic circle 

What?
you can't see anything?

maybe this one is better
Basically after passing the traffic circle one way
then passing the traffic circle the other way
we finally stayed on the traffic circle
(once we figured out what the traffic circle was)
we thought we had taken the wrong exit once again
then we saw a sign in the parking lot out of the corner of our eyes
(yes, both of us at the same time)

Where is my big nice pavillon?
and rows and rows of vendors?
where's the bread?
Where do I think I am ?
France?
(well, we did have to exit off the traffic circle aka roundabout)

My friend is awesome and loves an adventure
thankfully
and
we did buy some jam
cuz that's what we went to the farmers market to buy
jam

ahhh
good times

stay tuned..
... there's more
(you don't think I'm make someone go to Ft Worth just for a farmer's market, do ya?)

That is the SADDEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN in a parking lot. (Except maybe those always-empty traveling carnivals.)
