Storm clouds don't stop us

Today we had a few errands to run and once those were done it was off to Churchill Square to take in The Taste of Edmonton. This is a food festival featuring over 30 different restaurants in Edmonton. They each feature a couple of items off of their menus.
We had a nice time despite the storm clouds. The rain did hold off. Then it was off to the City Market which is an outdoor Farmer's Market. Unfortunately we were not so lucky with the rain there. However we still took time to visit some of the vendors and come away with some nice fresh vegtables
Sounds like a fun Saturday!..glad the rain did hold off for you...lots of yummy treats? High drama sky too...nice shot!

Gorgeous pic - lovely storm clouds. Glad you got to at least one of the markets without being rain affected. I adore farmer's markets - we have one here on the first Saturday of every month.
July 28th, 2013  
Wow, those are really stormy looking clouds. Love your photo, Brian. Sounds like a fun time at the food fest and at least the rain waited till you were getting your produce.
July 28th, 2013  
This is what Carol and I like doing.
July 28th, 2013  
This sounds good, I hope you a good time, the clouds looks great
July 28th, 2013  
That looks seriously threatening. Sounds like a good way to spend a day.
July 28th, 2013  
Great capture of the markets and storm clouds.
July 28th, 2013

Sounds like a great day. Remember there's no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes.
July 28th, 2013  
This looks like fun. I like to explore places like this.
July 28th, 2013  
Sounds like you managed to have a good time in spite of those forbidding-looking clouds. Looks chilly, too. Great shot of market and clouds.

@montse Les nuages ne font un tres beau coup
July 29th, 2013  
We should never let the weather stop us doing anything. So often when the forecast is bad it turns out not so bad after all (and sadly vice versa!!) Hope the produce tasted good.
July 29th, 2013  
great capture of the crowd and clouds, brian. so glad you and mel had a great time.
July 29th, 2013  
That would be a lot of fun to wander and taste test. Would give ideas for restaurants to try out!
July 29th, 2013  
Sounds like a good day for shopping in spite of the rain. I meant to get over to the "vegetable lady" this Saturday and completely forgot because I don't have a car. It wasn't till we went out that evening and passed her sign that I remembered! Oh well, next week.
July 30th, 2013

July 30th, 2013

July 30th, 2013  
@lynnb That is kind of the idea of the festival.
July 30th, 2013  
@olivetreeann It was our first trip to the market this summer and we definitely need to get back there
July 30th, 2013  
It looks like you really get out to see the sights. How fun!
July 30th, 2013
