    So hebe, sfa & any others if you don't see poll (on top right hand side of lst blog page) for any blog below:

    Let me know which Internet browser software you are using and the version. What do you see? A blank? Let me know either here or pm me.


    (I have to learn to how to do this poll thing which is pretty simple but obviously different browsers render different results.. I have to launch a 4th blog over the next few months. On cycling..totally different.)

    I was able to see and vote in both polls. I also enjoyed reading your blogs while I was there and have bookmarked them for future reading. I especially enjoyed reading about the farmers markets. In our town there had not been one and I always wanted to see one here. In 2008 I was elected as township supervisor and in the summer of 2009 we opened our first farmers market.

    It continues during summer months. It has been difficult to market this market however the two market managers we have had both expended a lot of effort. If any others with experience in this care to comment or share ideas I am totally open to hear how to grow the markets. I don't want to totally hijack this thread so you can PM me on it.

    Back to thread again, the photos on both blogs are really good and I enjoyed them. I like your writing style.

    The thread I started "BLOGGS....fantastic!" on 29 December was because I thought how most of the blogs on here are absolutely super.

    I have fallen in love with the first photo on Third Wave Cycling Blog (Bike parked in snow bank. Leavenworth)

    Also like the snow effect on Cycle Write Blog.

    The Poll appeared fine while using Opera.

    My goodness, you must be all blogged out, must take a lot of time to write.

    aha, how silly am I, I was looking on the poll page here at TE. I have voted on the first one and will do so on the second when I've read it in more detail. Thank you for clarifying where to look!

    I love the photo of the bike parked in snowbank too. Have been wanting to use it for a long time.

    As for farmers' markets marketing strategy & coordination, Vancouver's organization which coordinates the effort and works with the municipality:

    http://www.eatlocal.org/contact.html
    MacDonald is the primary contact. She's been interviewed by local reporters.
    Vancouver's markets --just more of them and increasingly successful as 2010 has shown. (Remember the vendors have to deal with rainy weekends when outdoors...)

    Hope you offer bike valet parking at a market one day..

    Yes Orange..for me, blogging takes some time. This is why I could only do it for subjects I enjoy writing about.

    Done! Polls took their sweet time to show up in Chrome, though...

    Love your pictures. Mmm, bison...
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Done! I love your European cake photos, they brought back wonderful memories of a trip to Vienna.
