This is the one tag and daily challenge that I always make a point of joining, and also look through the posts of others that join the challenge and seeing markets from all around the world.

For this weeks post, I am going to share a few random shots that could be considered markets in one way or another around Downtown Milford where I live.

Starting by the train station there is this building, the Milford Arts Council or MAC as many call it they hos many things there, theatre productions music and photo exhibits and art shows etc etc, really adding some culture to our little city

And this is on the opposite side of the tracks on the side where trains head into NYC most days, I am not sure if it has other uses but its a little coffee shop and a waiting room where people can grab a coffee sandwich or snack and the daily paper while waiting for the train, in the summer months I didn't often go in there, but on an inch winter day I made good use of it popping in to stay warm while waiting for the train.

And this is not to far from the train station on the green, it used to be called Rainbow Gardens and served excellent food we went there a few times, recently they sold it and it is now called Founders House which we have not tried but I have heard good feedback, come the 20th restaurants can serve people outdoors and they have a small sitting area outdoors which I guess they can use.

I love the old train stations. They are smaller than they need to be, but, quaint in their own way. Connecticut still has a lot of theirs still standing (because of their proximity to NYC) and selling coffee and food to the commuters!

One of the coolest train stations here in Virginia is in Richmond, where it has a beautiful clock tower that you can see from the Interstate 95.

I love the old Victorian-ness of the Founders Restaurant. I bet it has a nice ambiance to it. I can't believe that Connecticut is ready for it! They opened some of Virginia except Northern Virginia, where I am. They decided to keep it shut down for a few more weeks. We will see how it goes. Thank you,truly for supporting the challenge!

Thank you for joining!!!
