lycopene.

i went to the tomato art festival today.

FUN.

music.

good food i didn't buy. but it was there.

lots of local artists and food growers and skilled people of all kinds selling their creations.

somehow i got out of the habit of documenting my life through pictures. i choose to change that.

one thing i love about east nashville is how there are so many locally owned, very cool, stores in the neighborhoods. i saw this one and it made me remember i had a camera with me, so i took a picture. it had all the tomato art inside. tomato art! how fantastically random.

and there was a lady with a booth set up outside this building. it was the "prose stand." or something like that. she had a typewriter. a typewriter. and she created prose on the spot for you, if you wanted her to. i think. interesting. i should have gotten some prose.



colorful.



this is not a great picture, but i thought it was funny. all these people crammed under one lonely tree cluster for shade to listen to the music.



fun story! we went to this "arthouse garden" place. they had some cute little benches set up, and there was another stage with some other music playing. and all these plants for sale. i saw a man from church there. and he was like "yeah. i own this place."



i think i got a sunburn. whoops.
