The outdoor market takes place every Saturday, a space for the vegetable market and the space for crafts, music and food.This last Saturday was a beautiful day and the market was crowded with people. Everyone was having a good time, dancing and listening to the jazz music, sitting at the tables, eating, enjoying the surroundings. Old people danced, young people danced and old and young danced together, (man with white beard with young girl with long hair).It is like the old hippy days, skirts, tie dyed shirts and all kinds of hats. People talk to each other, people they don't know. It is a friendly place.
After the market I went for a bike ride along the river. It is wonderful to see so many people out in the park, walking, with dogs, with family, eating at picnic tables, lying on the grass, children playing. There are foot bridges that cross the river and I made a loop from my side across to the other side and back to my side about I guess four miles.
The stone stairs go to the top of Skinner's Butte, a high hill that looks out over the city. From my window I look out to the trees on Skinners Butte and east to hills.
