Jay Jay has an incredible way of figuring out whether he will go out for a walk. If I come downstairs in my house clothes, he would not even budge from his bed. But if he sees me wearing outside clothes, he will promptly jump down the stairs waiting for me to take him out.

Today, both Sharmila and I got dressed up to go to downtown. Our friend was already waiting at the door looking outside impatiently. I stepped out and he followed suit. But moment we got to the street, he remembered that Sharmila had dressed up too. Just sat their looking at our door waiting for Sharmila to come out.

I even let go of his leash and pretended to walk away. When I looked back, he was still waiting there for Sharmila to come out. And when she came out, he ran to me as fast as he could dragging his leash and occasionally looking back to see if she was following.

Now time for cappuccino and doggy treats!

We were walking in downtown Alpharetta when we came across one more of those live music going on. This was at the intersection of Canton and Academy in front of Coalition.

This gentleman – Geno – is really talented. He was certainly singing and playing the guitar as many do. Simultaneously, he was playing the bass with his two feet on that instrument you can see. I was impressed enough that I waited for him to finish his song and then chatted him up.

Apparently he has been doing this for 30 years!!

… Alpharetta Farmer’s Market. Today, as we were walking back, we heard a car honking at us. Looked back and saw Mrinal-da and Seemita-di headed toward the market!

Let me see – beetroots, potatoes, onion, eggplants, zucchinis (two styles), apples, asparagus, cauliflowers, tomatoes, carrots, blueberries, eggs and boxed cakes.
