We saw small local kiosks everywhere. Some blocks had three or even four. Reds and pinks and lace….Valentine’s day goodies on almost every corner. Balloons here and teddybears there all plastic wrapped sitting on boxes of candy tied to this or dangling from that. Some of these mom and pop stalls had piñatas others had everything plus fresh flowers.
Over here on quiet side of the city, we have single folks selling flowers on street corners. Just a few miles away, this custom has grown and blossomed into an industry that must keep many families working hard all year for one to two days of sales.
Wonderful images. I got behind on your posts and read a few back ones. I have so much to say to you. When I come to San Diego to see my sister we have to get together. My niece is an alcoholic who has been with AA for many years.

ReplyDeleteI'm glad you put these up. There don't seem to be many people around to buy any of the stuff available in those sad looking storefronts. Love the wrong way sign. I wonder if it worked?
