I'll have to play with it some more. These images were taken on a trip to the local farmer's market and the Old Guilford Mill (http:// www.oldmillofguilford.com/index.htm) with my son and his girlfriend. I haven't picked a favorite for the PAW album yet, but am leaning toward the checkout girl. It was too cold today for the outside portion of this large farmer's market where the local farmer's usually set up. Too cold for fresh local produce for that matter. There's an inside section that is occupied by semi-permanent produce stands selling fresh vegetables from elsewhere, along with canned goods, meats, cheese, etc. <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Will+R/2007+PAW/wk7-market_1.jpg.html> <http://tinyurl.com/2bnp74> My son, Aubrey, and his girlfriend, Britney, browsing the spices. <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Will+R/2007+PAW/wk7-market_2.jpg.html> <http://tinyurl.com/2cpdkw> From the market we drove over to the historic Old Guilford Mill, just north of Greensboro, to pick up some fresh ground corn meal. The present building was built in 1820 and visitors must walk through the first level to get to the mill store. The mill is open seven days a week for visitors and distributes stone ground meal to restaurants up and down the east coast. <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Will+R/2007+PAW/wk7-mill_1.jpg.html> <http://tinyurl.com/yrl8js> This is the young lady who was working in the mill today. When there are no customers she works in the unheated mill bagging flour, corn meal, and hominy grits. The fluffy throat muffler was how she kept warm when not in the store. <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Will+R/2007+PAW/wk7-mill_2.jpg.html> <http://tinyurl.com/22jsh4> Thanks for looking. Comments and criticism equally welcome. Will Greensboro, NC
