The Queen Anne Farmer’s Market was new to me, so I
walked around for a little while munching a cookie from Grateful Bread
to get the lay of the sketching land. Even though I had barely arrived, I
considered retreating to my car – the strong wind was downright chilly. (Is my
first summer as a sketcher already nearly over? Say it ain’t so!) Instead, I
got an Americano to warm up, and I was happy I did, because when I went around
to the back, I discovered the “live music stage.”
With an interesting repertoire ranging from Bing Crosby (“Every
time it rains, it rains pennies from heaven, don'tcha know each cloud contains
pennies from heaven?”) to Johnny Cash (“When I was just a baby, my mama told
me, son, always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns”), this vocalist used
a megaphone for a mike. I shivered as I finished my sketch, but his Hawaiian
shirt kept me thinking about summer.
