I was strolling down Fair Avenue when some of the metal sculptures caught my eye.   Though it was a Sunday, the door was open.  I found the ambiance laid-back and welcoming.

I go back to this gallery time and time again because the exhibits change regularly, and almost always captivate me.

Along East Cliff, there is a Sunday farmer's market and the crepes at this cart are quite delicious.  I have tasted both, the fruit crepe and the vegetable crepe.
