It's so nice here. We can buy things without having to leave our own yard. Well, we do sometimes have to walk a few feet, oh, excuse me, meters. Every few days we hear the watermelon truck go by with the sellers yelling, "Karpus! Kavun! (Watermelon! Cantaloupe!)" A truck drove by a few weeks ago announcing rug cleaning services and a few days later another truck selling 3 rugs for 10 lira (about $7.50). Yesterday two women wearing village dress of shalwar pants, long-sleeved shirt and headscarve, each carrying a large sack on her back, called out, "Sheets and tablecloths for sale!" And just a minute ago, a young man carrying plastic bags of fish walked by yelling, "Fresh fish!"
I'm waiting for the guy calling out, "Ucuz altın! (Cheap gold!)"
