Champaign, OH:  He's Gone

Like a steam locomotive, rolling down the track…
He’s gone…gone, and nothings gonna bring him back…he’s gone.
(He’s Gone-Grateful Dead)

Well, tonight was the kick off show, in Albany, New York, of The Dead and Co. tour. One of my best friends from the West End is there, showing his love, having a real good time.

This song, this verse, and this tour reminds me so much of this little local market of love. We just keep rolling along, making our way, endless hours of work, mega amounts of customers who help make this market what it is, and the love that we feel from the customers, each and every week.

Just like Dead and Co. we keep on rolling…we keep on rockin’. Show us YOUR love, this week, by checking us out, getting to know us, putting an order in, getting to know us, once again…we promise…it will be a real good time!

I open the market, tonight, so that you can begin to plan for the upcoming week.

As always, we know that you have a choice in your shopping venues, but we are super excited that you put your trust in us…

Peace, Love, Good Vibes…
Cosmic Pam
