Bundle 1 talk to stangers

Well lets define strange first. The girls at work are quite odd and they are the ones that let me know about the farmers market at Goddard Park. So they were able to turn me on to something new that i did not know, even as I was researching very little came up about the farmers market. So I learned that there is a farmers market every Friday 9 - 1, as an added aside they thought it was Saturday 9 -1. My desk at work has a picture of my dog when he was a baby taken at Goddard Park. The picture has actually stirred up many conversations about the park with various people how walk by my desk. I actually had a conversation on day with a man who lived down the street from the park and had never been there. I found it a little odd that living right there would inspire you to a least go in one day and take a look. So this conversation has merit because it makes you wonder why people that have this beautiful resource don't go and make use of it. I have to drive to get there. As a non native Rhode Islander driving was never an issue but now that I do live here I can attest that the disease of not wanting to drive is defiantly contagious. So this makes me question how much are people of the state taking advantage of the resources they have. So once again the question comes in is this person a stranger. Well it comes down to the person is strange not a stranger. The last person that I talked to about Goddard Park was the old man. He is the strangest of them all. He introduced me to the park a few years ago and he started going to Goddard Park when he was a child in the 1960's. His family would travel down to the park and spend the day swimming at the beach. He always thought sandwiches were called sandwiches because of all the sand that was in them because of the beach. We started going down to the park with the dog and the kids. Run them both around all day and get them tired so they sleep. We have continued taking the dogs, every year there seems to be one more who needs to learn off leash commands and experience swimming for the first time. In fact two out of the three dogs swam for the first time at Goddard Park. So this is how I learned about and became acquainted with Goddard Park. I know that this doesn't completely fit the bill of talking to strangers, but I have a problem talking to people I'm not acquainted with. So please forgive a crazy agoraphobic.
