Today at the art festivals

It was cold early today, the most popular booth at the Grove festival was the Starbucks truck, seen above. The coffee tasted horrible, but it was hot and hit the spot in the cold weather.

These photos were taken at both, the Coconut Grove Arts Festival and the Saint Stephen's Arts and Crafts Show. If you click on them, you can see them much larger.

Love the life sized Spitting Image characters! Hey is that A picture of one of Jerry Garcia I see in the back there? I want that! But where would you keep such a thing?

It's a shame there was no one else offering coffee this morning. I hate Starbucks and probally would have gotten all ticked off just to see them there though I know full well it's to be expected.

I think I'll have to go home for a visit for the festival next year.

Thanks for sharing.

There was a coffee house at one time (back in the 70's) but The Grove was apparently over run with "undesierables" who were drawn to such places and the city wanted the new wealty Yuppie Crowd to move in.
Since then it's almost like there's a weird bubble keeping places like coffee shopes from even thinking of opening up there. I guess with all the drinking establishments and such they figure if people want coffee they'll go to one of the bars or resteraunts.
