RE: Market Friday goes to Quincy Market of Boston

in #marketfriday6 years ago

Haha! I actually thought of you when I saw that bag!! I swear it! Well, if I cussed, I would swear it. But, all of the colonists had one. So, you are a throwback and you didn't know it! I should have told him nice bag anyway.

Those are high voltage fixtures, don't you think? It should make you feel better to know that they light up like a Christmas Tree (read that as bright) when it is nighttime. One more bulb would blow out the city, I know it would. Then whose fault would it be? Don't go blaming me when the RedCoats come for you. :)

Yeah, the clerk pretty much knew I was Christmas Crazy. I spent a couple of hours minutes there. Well spent, I might add. Franklin nesting doll? you know it!!! Hehe. That means you will have to go there. You will like that better than any historical sight you have ever gone to - to date. I insist on it. I love NYC, but, I love Boston better for the close proximity that most of the historical places are to each other. So very walkable. No worries on your market. Mine is actually pretty weak this week also, I just didn't have the pictures I needed and it was so late and... shall I go on? Such a good excuse maker for not being prepared!

I am glad if you liked it. It was an awesome place and when I go back, I will know much better what I want out of it. I didn't have #MarketFriday in mind whenever I have gone before. :) Thank you for stopping by and for leaving such a kind and thoughtful comment. I hope you are having a fabulous Friday!

#MarketFriday loves you!

No way José this is a great mf! Say I told you I am a dinosaur! You just never believed me lol

Say was the bag a part of the style back then? Now I am curious. Drats I am always 200 years behind the times.

I stayed up till 2 waiting for you to post and faded due to 100 degree heat lol.

Did you know you always make me smile. Seriously you crack me up always!


I truly think you were further behind than 200 years! Always late to the party!! I was wishing for a little sleep before two, but, that wasn't in the plan. Obviously. I paid dearly for it today, no worries. Here is a little something for you. :)


A 16th-Century Messenger Bag?
As pockets became an integral part of clothing during the 17th century, men no longer needed to carry handbags for anything other than the bulkiest of items—books, documents, and letters.

YEASSS! Sweet thanks Sunshine! Did you see the sporran on the guy with the kilt right before the bag? I might have to get me a kilt for the Ren Fest in September. Plus I might have to grow my hair :D Oh yeah I can be a real Gypsy, hillbilly, kilt wearing nutter with a bag. Yeah I know it I was 500 years too late to the party. Of course you would have been the Queen 500 years ago, there is no doubt about that! Now you get a real Gypsy hillbilly kilt wearing nutter with a bag big upvote for all your work showing it to me :D . You are the best, I always said it.

I actually had to read that four times! LOL

You crazy hillbilly gypsy! LOL
