We have begun to look locally for things we have not done or seen yet. Yesterday we were in Shell (about 5 miles away). A blog about that trip later.This morning we went to the Sunday morning Puyo market. Had not made that trip yet. The pictures today are the PEOPLE of the market. The next posting will be about the products of the market.
The picture above shows that not everyone thinks having their picture taken is the highlight of their morning. The lady with the folded arms was sending a strong message.This market is actually very large. Many of the vendors are indiginous people from the area around Puyo.
MJ is buying some locally made jewelry. Most of the jewelry is made from various kinds of seeds.
When one gets too old to carry the heavy stuff, there is always a way to do it. Not sure my neck could take this load even now.
The kids are really something! This little gal was really IN TO her cotton candy!
The ladies above were obviously old hands at this market stuff. A wide variety of dress is evident around the market.
Mothers with babies and young children bring them to the market as a matter of fact. This mother was very pleased when we showed her the picture on our viewer. Kids are always cute!

Ok, in the 6th picture ( the one between the two cotten candy shoots ) is that US dollars being exchanged?
I find you two truly incredible. Lifelong learners and servants. God bless you both!
