Florida streets are filled with vendors of all sorts. Most prevalent are the men and women selling oranges and various other home grown fruit out of their pickups. However, there is also an abundance of gator jerky vendors, and many peddling fresh flowers, but the vendor i pass on the way home from work has decided to be in a class all his own. I know it is hard to make out from this pic, but those are rugs. Yes rugs, I missed the main display just off camera to the right, but it consists of a 10 foot high and 20 wide rig containing no fewer than 20 rugs. Now I drive a lot, which allows me to think a lot, and while I pass these vendors i oft consider buying a lime, or a prime cut of gator jerky, but i can say with confidence I had never considered a rug whilst driving about. However, it is a concept that tends to grow on you. I have passed him no less than 30 times and those rugs are growing on me. I think I'm about 30 more drive bys from considering stopping across the street to look, and who knows from there.
