In Houston, on the Northside of downtown, there is a place that has held my heart for many years. This place is Canino’s Farmers Market located at 2520 Airline Drive,  Houston, TX 77009. Canino’s has everything that one can imagine in the way of fresh produce and vegetables at about 25 to 40% less than retail grocery prices. Much of what Canino’s offers is locally grown in Texas. It is a great place to explore, save money, purchase fresh fruits, vegetables, dry beans, rice, nuts, flowers, and local raw honey and preserves. During my trip yesterday, I asked if I could take photos and share them on my blog. The manager graciously approved. So here are some images from Canino’s Farmers Market.

I took this photo at the Houston Zoo. This Chimp has a look on his face. I think it is a look of contemplation. What could he be thinking?

One of my favorite places in the World is the wilderness. There is so much to do,  see, touch, hear, smell, and sometimes taste  for those who want to open their eyes and look.
