This weekend was the Mainsail Arts Festival. The weather was beautiful; warmer, sort of a hint of what's to come in a few months. On Saturday, Wayne and I walked down to the Saturday Market first. It's been a while since I've been there, so we thought we'd check it out. We stopped for lunch at TooJays at BayWalk. They had a deli brunch till mid afternoon, so we decided to have the breakfast selections. Wayne had a "strata" which reminded me of the dishes that Dave used to make up there in Albany. I went for the special with eggs, bacon, sausage, pototoe wedges, a waffle and toast (which the waiter never brought).
BayWalk and TooJays.
Downtown was hopping. There were people all over the place.
There were plenty of booths with arts, crafts, artwork, ceramics, glass work, furniture and food.
One of the members at my credit union makes wood furniture, many in the 'Adirondack' style. His company is Island Time Design. Very comfortable, I must say!
Wayne tried one of these in another vendor booth. More comfortable than it looks!
Passed this house on the way.
We rented "Dan in Real Life" and watched that Saturday night. Some snacks?
On Sunday we were invited to a brunch at Bob's and Alan's condo in downtown St Petersburg and then the bunch of us walked over to the Festival.
This condo was beautiful. And it was just sold! A corner unit on the fifth floor that overlooks downtown St Pete, with a great view of fireworks at the pier, from one of the balconies.
Would you believe that all ten of us rode to the festival in this Smart Car? Nah? OK. I lied. We walked.
These glass pieces were amazing! And a hefty price tag too.
We happened to be standing there to take advantage of the shade when one of the guys said we looked like an ad for AT&T's "More bars in more places" campaign.
I think this guy must have had a long day...
These vines on the fence in the back of my apartment building are all in bloom with a very sweet smell.
