Today was a new shopping experience for us. We went with Pres. & Sister Wong to the Fresh Market. It is an enormous place with fruits, vegetables and meats brought in each morning from local growers. It is about the size of the distance from Panguitch Middle School to the Courthouse or two SLC blocks put end to end. You go through the "wet" place first where you hear roosters crowing and smell the fish, beef, pork and chickens. Once you get to the "dry" market you see the wonderful fruits and vegetables. The "owners" are pretty aggressive for a sale as everyone sells pretty much the same things. There is a total difference in what we buy at the market across the street and what we got today. I just don't know if the three hour trip is worth the hassle!
