San Luis Obispo mission
We could certainly get used to California living. Our stay in San Luis Obispo has been thoroughly enjoyable. Today the temperature was in the low 80's F. We spent the morning exploring the downtown area and touring the mission.
Every Thursday evening is Farmers' Market here in SLO. One of the streets in the core of downtown is blocked off for several blocks. It is a popular community event . We were amazed at the produce that was displayed. There were fruits and vegetables of every type as well as nuts (walnuts and almonds), dates and figs and fresh flowers. It is difficult for those of us from the frozen north to comprehend that locally grown fresh produce could be sold in a street market every week throughout the year. In addition to the produce, local restaurants had booths set up to create a street BBQ. Live musicians added to the festive atmosphere. We basically ate our way from one end of the market to the other.
