Woody's Laundrymat

NARRATIVE
It's a TCB ("Takin' Care of Business") kinda Saturday...

I got up just to miss the meteor shower this morning, laid in bed and contemplated doing errands car-free today.

Well, at least I managed to arrange my trip so it followed the loop I drive anyway.

I did the Lake Merrit/Grand Lake Farmer's Market, strolled along Lakeshore and windowshopped at Maribel and Juniper Tree and made some vitamin purchases at Lakeshore Natural Foods and now I'm doing the laundry. Or at least the machines are and I am in the back, picking up some free wifi and enjoying the sun, hibiscus flowers, amazing sunshine...all in Woody's back patio.
